Operating Systems - End of Support	Artifactory 7.77.3	Artifactory is running with Node.js 20.x on all installation types from Artifactory 7.77.3. Node.js 20.x provided with Linux Archive/Debian/RPM installations (non-containerized distributions) is not supported on the following operating systems: Ubuntu 18.04, RHEL 7.x, Centos 7.x, Suse Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) 12 SP5 and Amazon Linux 2	Upgrade Artifactory OS to one of the supported operating systems before upgrade to Artifactory 7.77 and above.
NuGet V2 APIs Deprecation Notice	Artifactory 7.49.3	With the decision by NuGet for EoL/EoS for Nuget V2 and transition to V3, and JFrog's emphasis on keeping its code up-to-date, the following two NuGet APIs will be deprecated towards the end of Q1, 2023: `/GetUpdates()` `/GetUpdates()/$count` If you continue to use NuGet V2, you can use the `/search` API instead.
CentOS 8.x support	Artifactory 7.43.x	CentOS 8.x reached its end-of-life in December 2021. CentOS 8.x support for JFrog products was deprecated at the end of June 2022.
Terraform Backend Repository deprecation by Hashicorp	End of Q2 2022	In the first half of 2022, Hashicorp announced the deprecation of a number of legacy providers, including the legacy `artifactory` provider, which served as a basic backend that only stored States in a generic JFrog repository, created and maintained by Hashicorp. To avoid confusion, please note that the official JFrog Artifactory Terraform Backend repository, described in this article, is unaffected by the Hashicorp `artifactory` backend provider deprecation action. As part of JFrog's alignment with the common Hashicorp main practices, the JFrog Terraform Backend repository supports the official Hashicorp enterprise-grade Terraform backend provider, and supports features such as locking, encoding of the data, smart comparisons, and additional common practices.
Unexpired password for a single-user endpoint		The "Unexpire Password for a Single User" endpoint has been removed from Artifactory REST APIs and the UI.
KMS encryption client name	Artifactory 7.31.10	The name, `kmsServerSideEncryptionKeyId` is deprecated.	You can continue to use the name without causing any errors. Use KMS Encryption client with the given KMS encryption key ID or alias.
Archive search on SaaS	December, 31, 2021	The Archive Search feature in JFrog Artifactory has been deprecated as of December, 31, 2021. The Archive Search feature affects Java workloads by searching through archived JARs and other files. As a result of the deprecation, your Artifactory performance will be improved due to a reduction of upload-related events and a decrease in database-related activities.	Browsing JAR archives and associated files will still be available via API or the product UI.
