  • Click on Generate a new token. You should be able to see a access new token on your UI.
  • Please copy the new token and add it to ~/.netrc file as given below
  • machine github.com login <github-handle> password <new github access token>

titleWhen I attempt to push changes to my fork of the RDK repository on Github, I receive a 403 Forbidden error.Anything am missing?

Possible reasons and solutions:

If you are already using the Personal Access Token and getting a 403, chances are that the token has auto-expired.

You can generate a new token in Github by going to "https://github.com -> Settings -> Developer Settings -> Personal Access Tokens", Clicking on "Generate a new token" and then replacing your old token inside the ~/.netrc file with the newly generated one.
