Using Jenkins stored credentials in Pipeline as yml for git push

Question

I am writing a Pipeline in Jenkins where I need to push the changes back to BitBucket using script. I have used stored credentials to get the code from BitBucket but unable to push it back to the server. Here is my script:

  - stage: Pull Code and Merge master in UAT
  steps:
    script:
      - "git credentialsId: '0b69d4a0-623b-4ba6-8e2c-8419ced4a31a', url: 'repo url'"
      - sh 'git status'
      - sh 'git checkout release/uat'
      - sh 'git merge -m "merging changes from main to UAT" origin/master'
      - "git push credentialsId: '0b69d4a0-623b-4ba6-8e2c-8419ced4a31a',url: 'repo url"  
      - sh 'git status'

git push is causing the errors. I don't know a way to do push using stored credentials

I am using this plugin to run pipeline as yaml.

Here is the error being thrown:

org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed:
WorkflowScript: 14: expecting '}', found ':' @ line 14, column 33.
         git push credentialsId: '0b69d4a0-623b-4ba6-8e2c-8419ced4a31a',url: 'http://10.0.110.4:7990/scm/ceye/ceye-admin.git
                               ^

The git command of Jenkins is basically just a wrapper of git clone/pull , it has no push option. The syntax error is caused because Jenkins expects the name of a parameter but gets "push".

To make this work you could either use a ssh key or encode the username and password in the url, like so:

sh "git push https://${username}:${password}@github.com/...repo.../.com

If the password is not URL save (contains & etc), you have to escape it first.
