Hi there,  
I have a dataset repository under an organization where I am the admin. I cloned the repository to a Linux machine, prepared the dataset, and committed it and the dataset load script (with git LFS) to the local repository.  
When pushing the changes back to hugging face I get an authorization error. I tried logging in again, making sure that the commits have the same username and email that my hugging face account is and that the token is set in the git credentials file. To no avail.  
Any ideas?

```auto
$ git push
batch response: Authorization error. B | 0 B/s
Uploading LFS objects: 0% (0/16), 0 B | 0 B/s, done.
error: failed to push some refs to 'https://huggingface.co/datasets/myorg/mydataset

```

hi @tomersagi ,

The error message says Authorization error please try

> for all in the thread, we now have support for SSH keys, so many of the authentication problems could be overcome via SSH authentication.

Regarding MacOS users: If you initially signed on the cli with a READ token. Then had issues pushing, read the forums, figured out you need a WRITE token, went and created a new WRITE token, logged in, and it failed.That won’t work. The READ key _stays in the keychain_. Open keychain, search for ‘hugging’ delete and then sign on again with the WRITE token. Then, it should work.
