Artifactory 7.6
Released: June 23, 2020
Artifactory 7.6 is Available as a Cloud Version
The Artifactory 7.6 release is available only as a Cloud version.
Highlights
Alpine Linux Repository Support
Artifactory now natively supports Alpine Linux packages, giving you full control of your deployment and resolution process of Alpine Linux (*.apk) packages.
You can create secure and private local Alpine Linux repositories with fine-grained access control. Remote Alpine Linux repositories proxy remote Alpine resources and cache downloaded apk packages to keep you independent of the network and the remote resource, and virtual Alpine Linux repositories give you a single URL through which to manage the resolution and deployment of all your apk packages. To learn more, see Alpine Linux Repositories.
To support the signing of Alpine Linux package types, Artifactory now supports creating and managing RSA Key Pairs. You upload the RSA Key Pair using the Create RSA Key Pair or directly in the web UI and manage the keys directly in the JFrog Platform. Once you have generated the RSA Keys, you can assign the key pair to the Alpine Repository in the Advanced tab of the Alpine Repository configuration. For more information, see RSA Key Pairs.
JFrog Xray support for scanning Alpine Linux packages will be added in the forthcoming release.
Multi-factor Authentication
For JFrog Platform Cloud (SaaS) users, you can now use an additional layer of security when logging into the JFrog Platform. Administrators can enable multi-factor authentication for all users, which will require users to provide a verification code from a third-party authentication application every time users log in.
Event-driven Webhooks
The new Webhooks feature enables you to send important events occurring in Artifactory. You have a number of events that you can select, such as Artifact Deployment or Build Deployment, and send these events to other applications that are configured by setting a URL.
These events are sent through the new Event Service, which distributes your events to the relevant URLs you set when creating your Webhooks.
Feature Enhancements
PostreSQL Version Support
All JFrog products (excluding Pipelines) now support PostgreSQL version 10.x.
PostgreSQL Version Bundling
All JFrog’s installers bundling PostgreSQL have been updated to use a newer PostgreSQL version 10.13.

Artifactory 7.5
Released: May 19, 2020
Artifactory 7.5 is Available as a Cloud Version
The Artifactory 7.5 release is available only as a Cloud version.
Highlights
Artifactory Cloud with CDN Distribution
Artifactory Cloud Enterprise and Enterprise+ supports a fully integrated advanced CDN solution removing the need to deal with the complexity of setting up a separate external CDN Caching system. JFrog Artifactory Cloud with Amazon's CloudFront CDN solution allows you to manage, control, and distribute high volumes of software distribution across multiple locations.
The CDN solution provided in Artifactory Cloud supports distributing public content via Anonymous Access and Signed URLs, distributing private content using fine-grained permissions and Access Tokens, CNAME/SSL support, and setting IP Whitelisting and Geo Restrictions. To view the list of CDN features supported by the different JFrog subscription types, see Cloud Pricing.
From version 7.5, CDN Distribution is enabled by default for Artifactory Cloud Enterprise and Artifactory Cloud Enterprise+ users and all is that is required is to set CDN support on your repository level. For more information, see Get Started: Cloud.
Support for Signed URLs
Artifactory now supports using signed URLs. Users with administrator or manage permission can generate a signed URL that provides temporary shared access to a specific artifact, using the Create Signed URL REST API. Using the Replace Signed URL Key REST API, administrators can replace the key for signing and validating signed URLs, invalidating any signed URLs previously created. This feature is supported for Artifactory Cloud Enterprise and Enterprise+ users.
Xray Block Unscanned Artifacts Timeout Policy
This version includes the capability to define the timeout policy for unscanned artifact download requests. This means that when a block unscanned artifacts policy is configured in Xray, Artifactory will wait for the predefined time of the policy, to allow Xray to perform the required scan. This will prevent download request failures that require Xray scan on the artifacts.
In addition, to improve artifact download performance, Artifactory will now only request Xray scans results for repositories configured with block download policy.
Configurations are available here.
** Available with Artifactory version 7.5.x and Xray version 3.4.x.
Support for RHEL 8 AppStream
Artifactory now supports Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 which contains support for enhanced Yum metadata for AppStream (RHEL8) or Modularity (Fedora) technology used in RHEL8. An example of this new metadata includes the data type=modules metadata from repomd.xml. The Content in AppStream in RPM is available in one of two formats - the familiar RPM format and an extension to the RPM format called Modules.
As part of the AppStream support in Artifactory, you can:
- Proxy AppStream modules through a remote RPM repository.
- Host and serve AppStream modules according to profiles and streams through a local RPM repository.
- Serve local and remote content through a virtual repository.
For more information, see Deploying RPM Modules to Your Local Repository.
Feature Enhancements
Upgraded Tomcat Version
The Tomcat bundled with Artifactory has been upgraded to version 8.5.54.
In this upgrade, the HTTP date headers issue that existed in Artifactory 7.3.2 and 7.4.0 (that were bundled with Tomcat 8.5.51) was fixed.
Generate Maven POM File from Internal Jar or a Default POM File REST API
You can now generate a Maven POM file using the Artifactory REST API. To use the POM within the artifact, you can deploy an existing POM, or generate a default POM. Previously available only through the UI, Deploying Maven Artifacts.

For a complete list of changes, please refer to our JIRA Release Notes.
Artifactory 7.4.1
Released: 14 April, 2020
Feature Enhancements
Reverted Tomcat Version to 8.5.41
The Tomcat version previously bundled in Artifactory 7.3.2 and 7.4.0 has been reverted back to Tomcat 8.5.41 due to an issue found in Tomcat version 8.5.51.
Just a bit of background, Tomcat was previously upgraded to version 8.5.51. Due to a known issue in Tomcat 8.5.51, Artifactory may return HTTP date headers (Date, Last-Modified) in a timezone that is different than GMT. See more details here.
This applies only if you are using clients that make use of the "If-Modified-Since" request header in the request to Artifactory, therefore validate that dates are sent in GMT format (according to the HTTP spec mandates).
If your clients send dates in a timezone that is different than GMT format and you are using Artifactory 7.3.2, we recommend upgrading to this version.
An Artifactory version containing an upgraded Tomcat version will be released once making sure the aforementioned issue no longer affects Artifactory.
Setting SSL/TLS for the Artifactory Tomcat Connector via Artifactory system YAML File
You can now enable SSL/TLS for the Artifactory Tomcat connector directly in the Artifactory System YAML file. For more information, see Artifactory Operational Microservices.
Added Support for Docker Upgrades from Legacy Artifactory Versions
You can upgrade JFrog Artifactory using Docker from Artifactory version 6.x to 7.x or from 7.x to 7.x.
Issues Resolved
- Improved performance when running Interactive Installers.
- Fixed an issue whereby stopping a service using the
artifactoryctl stopcommand failed in the first attempt if thepidofcommand did not exist on the installed server.

Released Date: 27 April, 2020
Resolved Issues
JIRA Issue | Description |
|---|---|
| RTFACT-21835 | Fixed an issue, whereby upgrading from Artifactory 6.19.0 to 7.4.1 failed. |
Fixed an issue relevant to NuGet virtual repositories whereby, Artifactory only served the first 80 versions of a NuGet package containing more than 80 versions, while local and remote NuGet repositories returned all of the versions for the package. | |
| RTFACT-21846, RTFACT-21825 | Fixed a permission issue in Docker and NuGet repositories for virtual repositories that aggregated local and remote repositories. If a user had permissions only on a number of the aggregated repositories and tried to download a package from the virtual repository, he would receive an error Unauthorized error message. |
For a complete list of changes, please refer to our JIRA Release Notes.
Artifactory 7.3
Released: 23 March, 2020
Artifactory 7.3 is Available as a Cloud Version
The Artifactory 7.3 release is available only as a Cloud version. Artifactory 7.3.2 applies to on-prem and contains all the resolved issues in Artifactory 7.3.0 and 7.3.1.
Highlights
PAT (Personal Access Token) Support for Remote Repository Authentication
In addition to the basic authentication, with username and password, Artifactory now supports remote repository authentication using Personal Access Tokens (PAT). The big advantage of using PATs is that you can strengthen your Artifactory security practices by using Access Tokens for authentication instead of using your primary credentials. For example, you can configure your remote Docker repository to point to GitHub and authenticate it by using a PAT. You can use PATs for any package type. For more information, see Remote Credentials.
LDAP Improvements
Artifactory now supports a new type of Active Directory "Nested Groups" search, enabling performance improvements when working with LDAP. This feature requires that Active Directory runs on Windows Server 2012 R2 version or later. There are no additional requirements for the Active Directory Windows Server side. For more information, see Support for Nested Groups.
Write-disabled Mode Supported for Shard Storage Requests
To enhance storage sharding, Artifactory now supports disabling write-requests to shards.
This is useful, for example, when migrating data from a shard that must be replaced. First, the feature is used to write-disable the shard and then the data is migrated to a new shard.
In addition, the feature still allows garbage collection to continue to clean the deleted binaries from the write-disabled shard.
To set the write-disable mode on a shard in Artifactory, see the Configuring State-Aware Binary Provider section.
Support for Matrix-params with Conan Repositories
Artifactory now supports matrix parameters for Conan repositories. As a result, the Build Info for Conan packages uploaded to Artifactory SaaS is now available.Feature Enhancements
Restricting System and Repository Imports
Artifactory allows admin users to import and export data at both the system level and the repository level. For more information, see the Importing and Exporting section.
Sometimes, however, it is advantageous to restrict imports to avoid causing undesirable results. With this new feature, the system and repository import options can be disabled, thereby preventing specific admin users in the enterprise from performing imports. For example, you can stop an admin from overriding the Release Bundles distributed to an Artifactory Edge, by preventing him from importing the initial Artifactory state. For more information, see Importing and Exporting.

Upgrade process changes
Update reverse proxy and load balancer
When upgrading your Artifactory HA installation from version 6.x to 7.x, make sure to adjust your reverse proxy settings and update your load balancer configuration to use the new JFrog Platform URL http://<hostname>:8081. Complete upgrade instructions here.
Unified User Interface
This version introduces a new UI that is unified for the entire JFrog Platform, including all JFrog products. If you are using Artifactory and other JFrog products such as JFrog Xray, JFrog Distribution, JFrog Mission Control and JFrog Insights, you will now be able to access them all from within a single UI with one URL address. Learn More >
Unified Permission Model
This version unifies all JFrog product permissions, allowing easier permission management across all products from one unified UI. The Unified Permission Model enables you to create a single permission target that applies to all products installed in the JFrog Platform. Since the products are unified within the Platform, you can now use a single permission target to control the permissions of all products. Learn More >
Logging
All JFrog products now follow a standardized logging format and naming convention. Learn More >
Feature Enhancements
Packages page
While previously the Packages page provided information for Docker and npm packages, it is now extended to provide metadata for all package types in your system (excluding Git LFS and Generic repositories). Learn More >
Search Experience
The search experience has been enhanced to enable searching for all resource types, including packages, builds and artifacts from a single search bar. It now also includes advanced capabilities, such as keyword search, simplifying the search experience. Learn More >
