# Add Git credentials

Git credentials added here will be usable by any admin-level user, though they will not be able to view the actual credentials directly.

## Adding your credentials

To add your Git credentials, from the [Shared credentials](https://docs.portainer.io/admin/settings/credentials) page click **Add credentials**, then select the **Git** option. 

Select either **Basic** or **Token** authorization depending on what your Git repository requires. For example, GitHub uses Basic authorization and Bitbucket uses Token authorization. Then supply a name for your shared credentials, your Git username, and your personal access token.

Once you've entered the relevant details, click **Add credentials** to save the entry.
