Azure DevOps Services | Azure DevOps Server 2022 - Azure DevOps Server 2019
With Azure Artifacts, you can publish your NuGet packages to public or private feeds and share them with others based on your feed's visibility settings. This article will guide you through connecting to Azure Artifacts and publishing and restoring your NuGet packages.
Prerequisites
An Azure DevOps organization and a project. Create an organization or a project if you haven't already.
An Azure Artifacts feed. Create a new feed if you don't have one already.
The latest NuGet version.
Connect to feed
Select Artifacts, and then select your feed from the dropdown menu.
Select Connect to feed.
Select NuGet.exe.
Follow the instructions in Project setup to set up your nuget.config file.
Publish packages
Run the following command to publish your packages to your feed. Replace the placeholders with the appropriate information:
nuget push <PACKAGE_PATH> -src https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/<ORGANIZATION_NAME>/<PROJECT_NAME>/_packaging/<FEED_NAME>/nuget/v3/index.json -ApiKey <ANY_STRING>
Note
The ApiKey
is required, but you can use any arbitrary value when pushing to Azure Artifacts feeds.
Example:
nuget push MyPackage.5.0.2.nupkg -src https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/MyOrg/MyProject/_packaging/MyFeed/nuget/v3/index.json -ApiKey AZ
Publish packages from external sources
Create a personal access token (PAT) with packaging read and write scope.
Add your package source to your nuget.config file. This will add your PAT to your nuget.config file. Store this file in a safe location, and make sure that you don't check it into source control. See NuGet sources for more details.
nuget sources Add -Name <SOURCE_NAME> -Source https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/<ORGANIZATION_NAME>/<PROJECT_NAME>/_packaging/<FEED_NAME>/nuget/v3/index.json -UserName <USER_NAME> -Password <PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN> -config <PATH_TO_NUGET_CONFIG_FILE>
Publish your package. See NuGet push for more details.
nuget push <PACKAGE_PATH> -src <SOURCE_NAME> -ApiKey <ANY_STRING>
Example:
nuget sources Add -Name "MySource" -Source https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/MyOrg/MyProject/_packaging/MyFeed/nuget/v3/index.json -UserName MyUserName -Password YourPersonalAccessToken -config ./nuget.config nuget push nupkgs/mypackage.1.1.8.nupkg -src MySource -ApiKey AZ
Note
If your organization is using a firewall or a proxy server, make sure you allow Azure Artifacts Domain URLs and IP addresses.
Restore packages
Run the following command to restore your packages:
nuget.exe restore
