I already followed the steps exactly specified at [this link](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27444891/how-to-add-ssh-key-in-travis-ci#27447256) However, I am still having the issue. My build will get stuck when accessing the private repo. ```auto $ julia --check-bounds=yes -e 'Pkg.clone("https://github.com/xxxx/xxxx.git")' INFO: Cloning xxxx from https://github.com/xxxx/xxxx.git Username for 'https://github.com': Done: Job Cancelled ``` Note: I manually cancel it after a few minutes of waiting. How can I get it to use the SSH key I have setup and bypass this username and password field? Note: xxxx is used in place of the name of my project to make this post general. I have already checked out the links on Travis CI and they don’t make it clear what needs to occur. Thank you! ---

Could you try changing the git url to use git+ssh? eg. `git@github.com:xxx/xxx.git` ---

Yes. Just to be clear, if I want to use the Deploy or User key, all I need to do it is change it to ‘Pkg.clone("git@github.com:organizer\_name/dependancy\_I\_want\_installed.git")’? ---

That is what I am thinking needs to happen to make it work, but not 100% sure until you try it 🙂 ---

Hey Josh, sorry for the delay. I was resolving other issues. I did what you suggested: ‘Pkg.clone("git@github.com:organizerName/REPO\_name.git")’ and I got the following error: ERROR: failed to clone from [git@github.com](mailto:git@github.com):organizerName/REPO\_name.git, error: GitError(Code:EEOF, Class:SSH, ERROR: Repository not found.) What should I try next? ---

Also, note that the API Token documentation for private repo dependencies does not work. [https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/private-dependencies/#api-token](https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/private-dependencies/#api-token) ---

[https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/languages/go/#installing-private-dependencies](https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/languages/go/#installing-private-dependencies) these steps do not resolve the issue either
