Need to encode PAT to use it in REST API for azure devops in a BASH script, struck with issue with PAT encoding and passing in the body

Need to encode PAT to use it in REST API for azure devops, struck with issue with PAT encoding and passing in the body. Need help with the format to encode PAT and use it in the body of REST. I am using this in a BASH script

#PAT-Encoding

B64_PAT=$(printf "%s"":$PAT" | base64)


#Create Repo in Azure

"Repo_Creation_Status=$(curl --write-out "%{http_code}\n" --location --request POST "https://dev.azure.com/"${OrganizationName}"/"${projectId}"/_apis/git/repositories?api-version=6.1-preview.1" \
        --header "Authorization: Basic ${B64_PAT}" \
        --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
        --data-raw '{
  "name": "'"$RepoName"'",
    "project": {
        "id": "'"$projectId"'"
          }
}' --output output.txt --silent)"

To create a repo with CRUL script, you could directly use the PAT without coding it.

Here is an example:

curl -X POST \
-u  :PAT  https://dev.azure.com/orgname/projectname/_apis/git/repositories?api-version=6.1-preview.1 \
-H 'Accept: application/json' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{ 
   "name": "Reponame", 
    "project": 
        {
           "id": "ProjectID" 
        }
}'
