How do I make SSH the default for Bitbucket Cloud?

Marakai

When creating a new repository in Bitbucket Cloud and choosing the "I have an existing project" option, the only remote on offer is HTTPS.

In Bitbucket Server I would get the option between HTTPS and SSH - of which I always preferred and used SSH.

I can't seem to find an option here that let's me choose. I want it to offer SSH always and as default. Lacking that, even choice would be nice.

I can't reproduce this - if I create a new repo in Bitbucket Cloud, and go to the "I have an existing project" section, then I get the SSH URL.

Do you have an SSH key associated with your account?

Strange. Yes, I do and when I manually set my remote to SSH everything works just fine. It's more a matter of being able to be copy&paste lazy.
