Use Set Me Up with a Federated Repository

Generate build tool configuration snippets for deploying to and resolving from a Federated repository.

Use Set Me Up to generate build tool snippets for deploy and resolve operations against a Federated repository.

Before You Begin

  • You have READ permission for resolve snippets.
  • You have DEPLOY permission for deploy snippets.

Generate Snippets

To generate build tool snippets:

  1. In Artifactory > Artifacts, select the Federated repository.
  2. Click Set Me Up.
  3. Select your build tool.
  4. Copy the generated configuration.

The generated URL points to your local JFrog Platform Deployment (JPD) so federation remains transparent for users.

Example Repository URL

https://<LOCAL_JPD>/artifactory/<REPO_KEY>

Where:

  • <LOCAL_JPD>: The hostname of your local JFrog Platform Deployment
  • <REPO_KEY>: The key of the Federated repository

For example:

https://mycompany.jfrog.io/artifactory/federated-libs-release
