I am getting the below error while I am trying to deploy my Angular application to Netlify from bitbucket.
These are the neatlify logs.

This usually happens because there are no permissions for Netlify to pull your source code. Netlify accesses repositories SOLELY via Deploy Key. Netlify cannot automatically install a deploy key on any git service (GitHub, GitLab or BitBucket) unless the installing/logged in user has administrative access privileges.
After acquiring appropriate permissions and re-linking via Netlify's UI, the deploy key was successfully install and pulls in Netlify's CI worked better.
Netlify's helpdesk can advise on workflows for cases where administrative access is not available.
