The documentation for spring-cloud-config authentication section specifies a password field, but makes no mention that this password should be a personal access token instead of the password.

This is the correct documentation link https://docs.spring.io/spring-cloud-config/docs/current/reference/html/#_authentication
If you are using basic authentication it should be a password.
