Dear Community,
As part of Sonatype’s infrastructure improvements, the Legacy OSSRH publishing process will be retired soon. To ensure continued availability of our artifacts in Maven Central, we are migrating our publishing workflow to the new Sonatype Central Portal.
What’s Changing?
- We will now publish artifacts using the Sonatype Central Portal instead of the Legacy OSSRH system.
- The new process follows Sonatype’s latest publishing guidelines for better stability and security.
- Snapshot artifacts published in Legacy OSSRH will not be available in the New Sonatype Central Snapshots Repository.
- There will be no automatic redirect from oss.sonatype.org to the new snapshot repository due to technical limitations and to avoid confusion among other users.
What You Need to Do
For implementers / developers using RELEASE Versions:
- No changes are required—our released artifacts will continue to be available on Maven Central as usual.
For implementers / developers SNAPSHOT Versions:
-
Existing snapshots in Legacy OSSRH will not be migrated automatically. If you rely on snapshot versions, please update your build configuration to use the released version or migrate to the latest version.
-
The new SNAPSHOT repository URL should be updated in your builds as follows:
Change: https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots
How This Affects You
Artifact Availability: All released versions will continue to be available on Maven Central.
Improved Publishing Experience: The new system enhances security and reliability.
Snapshot Availability: Existing snapshots in Legacy OSSRH will not be migrated— if your build depends on an older SNAPSHOT version, please migrate to released version or upgrade to latest version.
No Automatic Redirect: Update your repository URLs manually to avoid disruptions.
Migration Timeline
We have started working on making the changes that are needed in our build configuration across projects. Once we are ready with the changes across all repositories, we will migrate our namespace to Sonatype Central Portal and merge the PRs. We will keep posting here once we finish each of the steps.
