Search Hex Packages via UI
Artifactory supports a variety of ways to search for artifacts. For details, please refer to Browse and Search Artifacts. However, the packages may not be available immediately after being published, for the following reasons:
When publishing packages to a local repository, Artifactory calculates the search index asynchronously and will wait to index the newly published packages.
In the case of remote repositories, a new package will only be found once Artifactory checks for it according to the Retrieval Cache Period setting.
Search Hex Packages via API
Search Artifactory using REST API. Refer to Artifact Search API.
Tip
Artifactory annotates each deployed or cached package with the following properties:
hex.name
and hex.version
.
You can use Property Search to search for hex packages according to their name or version.
