Credentials dropdown empty even after adding a new credential

XMLWordPrintable

      Steps to reproduce:

      1. Create a new job
      2. Select Git as SCM
      3. In the credentials section, click on Add, configure a Secret Text credential (I used a github account)
      4. On the Job Configure page, you'll see that the Credentials dropdown is still none. The newly created credential doesn't show up.

      Issue marked as critical since there is no way I can setup Jenkins to work with Git. If there are workarounds, please let me know.

          The git plugin supports username / password based authentication (for https based repository URL's) and ssh private key based authentication (for ssh and scp based repository URL's). You seem to be using an ssh or scp based repository URL, so you'll need to use an ssh private key based credential

          I've tried with https:// scheme as well, with the same result.

          New Credentials using Secret Text are allowed to be created, but are not available in the dropdown box to be selected.

          Is Secret Text scheme broken?

          sradhakrishna, the secret text scheme is not "broken". It is not supported by the git plugin. You must use either https protocol with a username / password credential, or a private key with ssh/scp protocol.
