Login to Heroku with GitLab CI.yml

Question

I've been trying to deploy my GitLab application to Heroku, but unfortunatelt I keep getting this error when I try to run heroku login -i

Run `heroku login` to update your credentials, then retry the git command.

I've looked at solutions from the web for this, but none seem to help. Am I going about this wrong?

Here's my YML file

before_script:
  - echo "Running job..."

build_job_1:
  script:
    - heroku login -i
    - blank
    - XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX # Account token
    - git remote add heroku https://heroku:XXXXX@git.heroku.com/redditchatbot.git 
    - git push heroku HEAD:master

Thanks for the help!

Do not authenticate with username and password using git

That means: don't use heroku:XXXXX in your URL: the heroku login should cache your credentials, which implies you don't need said credentials in the URL.

If the issue persists, then check one of the solutions to "'git push heroku master' is still asking for authentication"
