Field Description
Artifactory Server URL The URL to the Artifactory server, including port number. URL is specified as follows: 
https://<host>:<port>
where the https:// protocol is required, the <host> is the machine on which the Artifactory server is installed, and the <port> is the port number.

Access Keys

The table displays a list of the configured Access keys. Use the select check box to select any keys to remove. You can create an API Key or an Access Token within Artificatory to provide the authentication to connect to the server.

Tip: Access Tokens provide greater control over the set of repositories available. API keys are restricted to repositories owned by a single user. Setting the Access Tokens with no timeout reduces the amount of maintenance required, since you do not need to regularly update the connector with a non-expired Access Token.

Field Description
Access Key Name A user-friendly name that allows you to identify the repositories for which this key provides access. For an API key, it might be the username of the API key creator. For the Access Token, it might be a recognizable name for the group of repositories.
Access Key Value
API Key
The generated API key. This is defined on a per user basis and provides access to the repositories available for that user.
Access Token
The Token ID for the Access Token. The Access Token provides access to all repositories specified by the scope of the Access Token.
For more information on how API Keys and Access Tokens are generated and used by Artifactory, consult the Artifactory Documentation
Key Type Specifies the type of Access Key:
  • API Key
  • Access Token
