ARTIFACTORY: How to configure sitecore.myget.org URL for NuGet remote repository

Introduction:

Artifactory is a powerful tool that allows for efficient management of remote repositories. In this article, we will guide you through the process of configuring and resolving NuGet packages hosted on “sitecore.myget.org” using Artifactory.

Sitecore embraces the NuGet package management system as a robust mechanism for disseminating the latest Sitecore Commerce packages.

By following the steps outlined below, you will be able to set up a remote registry sitecore.myget.org for the NuGet Remote repository and install packages seamlessly.

Configuring the NuGet Remote Repository:

To begin, access the Artifactory UI and follow these steps:

Navigate to the Administration Tab and select "New remote repository"
Choose "NuGet" as the package type

Fill out the required fields as follows:

URL: Set the URL as "https://sitecore.myget.org/F/sc-packages" Since the packages we are trying to be resolved under “sc-packages”, the specific url is used. If in case, if the packages are hosted under different path like “sc-commerce-packages” then, the url should be "https://sitecore.myget.org/F/sc-commerce-packages"
NuGet Download Context Path: Set it as "api/v2/package"
NuGet Feed Context Path: Set it as "api/v2"
NuGet v3 Feed URL: Leave it blank
NuGet Symbol Server URL: Leave it blank

Once all the fields are filled, click on "Create" Refer to the attached screenshot for visual assistance.
