I was trying to clone a private repository using the huggingface oauth token with repo write permissions but unable to. I am able to clone if I used Peronal Access Token.

My goal is to be able to push large files (.h5 or .pt files) which I can’t do using upload\_file endpoint.

Can you give more details? Do you have a request id to share? Is the private repository you’re trying to access part of an org or a user?

Thank you for your response, coyotte508.😀 I think this is the same issue that was resolved on HF Discord.
