For repositories stored on Bitbucket, the `bitbucket` backend allows CMS users to log in directly with their Bitbucket account. Note that all users must have write access to your content repository for this to work.

## Authentication

To enable Bitbucket authentication it:

1. Follow the authentication provider setup steps in the [Netlify docs](https://www.netlify.com/docs/authentication-providers/#using-an-authentication-provider).
2. Add the following lines to your Static CMS `config.yml` file:

   ```yaml
   backend:
     title: bitbucket
     repo: owner-name/repo-name # Path to your Bitbucket repository
   ```
