Add a JFrog Bridge

Follow the procedure described here to define a new JFrog Bridge.

Prerequisites
Firewall Whitelisting: Ensure the Self-managed JPD can send outbound requests to the SaaS JPD.

To add a new Bridge connection:

  1. Log in to the (SaaS) JPD that is the Server of the new Bridge.

    In the Administration module, go to Topology > Bridges > Bridge Server.

    The JPD is the Server for the Bridges in this table.

  2. Click Generate Pairing Token. In the Generate Pairing Token dialog, click Generate.

    Click Copy to copy the Token string. Save this string.

  3. Log in to the (self-managed) JPD that is the Client of the new Bridge.

    In the Administration module, go to Monitoring > Service Status and verify that the Bridge Client service is active. If necessary, install the Bridge Client service on the JPD.

  4. In the Administration module, go to Topology > Bridges > Bridge Client.

    The JPD is the Client for the Bridges in this table.

  5. Click New Bridge.

    The New Bridge Connection dialog opens. The following table describes the configuration parameters of the dialog.
