Hi all, :wave:

Have you ever tried pushing your scripts to a Git repository from Katalon Studio, only to realize that the username field is locked, leaving you wondering how to update it for your commits?

No worries! In this article, we will show you a straightforward solution to help you get back on track! Read more below :point_down:

The username field in Katalon Studio’s Git integration is read-only, meaning you cannot edit it directly within the application.

Solution

To make the username field writable, please follow the steps outlined below:

  1. Open your Katalon Studio Application
  2. Open the Katalon Studio Preferences:
  • On macOS: Settings OR ⌘+,
  • On Windows: Window → Katalon Studio Preferences OR Ctrl+Shift+P
  1. Expand the tab: Version Control (Team)
  2. Then, Expand the tab: Git
  3. Open the Configuration tab and click on Repository Settings
  4. Remove the “< YourUsername >@” from the URL and then click Apply and Close

For example:

  • The original URL:

    • → https://LinhTestUsername@dev.azure.com/linhtestOrg/Katalon_Git_ADO/_git/Katalon_Git_ADO

  • The Updated URL:

    • → https://dev.azure.com/linhtestOrg/Katalon_Git_ADO/_git/Katalon_Git_ADO
