ProGet issue with metadata API for PyPi packages

[amy.j]

There seems to be an issue with the metadata API, for PyPi packages, in the 2026 release. When the API is called at /api/packages/«feed-name»/metadata?«package-identifiers» it just times out.

We have tested this on different versions of ProGet. It was working fine when we used version 25.0.30. But so far hasn't worked on any version we have tried after that (2026.0.x) and have just received timeouts.

Any guidance would be appreciated, thanks!

Hi @amy.j ,

This sounds like it's related to PG-3356, which is targeted for this week's maintenance release.

Can you upgrade to 2026.10 (once released) and give it a sot after that?

Thanks,
Alana

Hi @atripp,

Tested in our dev instance and seems to be working ok now, thanks!

Hi, we also check for package compliance in our promotion pipeline, using the metadata API, and generate a summary based on that data. Just wondering if the API behaviour has changed? The ProGet version is: 2026.10.

For example, one of the dependency packages that was flagged was: charset_normalizer/3.5.1. This particular version was showing as non-compliant (based on our policies), as no license was detected. Double checking, from the UI in the related feed, the package is showing as compliant and has a license assigned. From the UI, we selected the 'Reanalyze Package' option (even though we weren't aware of any changes), however the API is still reporting the package as non-compliant. Below is the response for the specific package:
