Description: Creates a new repository in Artifactory with the provided configuration. Supported by local, remote, virtual, and Federated repositories.
Since: 2.3.0
Notes:
Supported JFrog Subscriptions:
Local, remote, and virtual repositories require a Pro subscription.
Federated repositories are supported from Artifactory 7.18.3 and require an Enterprise X or Enterprise+ subscription.
If a repository with the specified repoKey already exists, the call fails with a 400 response.
Missing values are set to the default values as defined by the consumed type spec.
For a repository to be identified as Smart Remote Repository, you need to set the “enabled” flag to true under “contentSynchronisation” (under Repository Configuration JSON ).
To enable CDN Distribution on the repository, set the
cdnRedirect
flag on the repository. Applies to Artifactory Cloud and requires an Enterprise or Enterprise+ license.
Note
In an Artifactory environment with more than several thousands of repositories, and a low-to-moderate level of concurrency in repository CRUD operations, there can be a data contention that the system will attempt to solve by retrying the operation. The number of retries is configurable using the
artifactory.central.config.save.number.of.retries
system property. The default value is 5.In such environments, it is also possible that changes made by a CUD operation may take up to tens of seconds or several minutes to propagate down and become fully visible in the application (for example, when trying to read a newly created repository via the REST API).
These are known issues that will be fixed in one of the future versions of Artifactory.
Security: Requires an admin user.
