Is the Proget supporting the connector to Nuget feed version 3?

[Alberto Morando]

Hi

We are using nuget feed

https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json

When I setup a connector to point to this url then I get the the error:

"There was an error with a connector:
Data at the root level,is invalid. Line1 position 1"

the error is displayed when I am trying to access the feed that is using the connector with
url as

https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json

IS this url supported by ProGet?

Thanks

Regards

Alberto

Product: ProGet

You will need to use http://nuget.org/api/v2 as the url instead.

This works exactly the same way, and will work with .net core packages, etc.

The so-called "v3 API endpoint" is undocumented and unsupported; it's only intended for use by the nuget.exe client, not private servers, and is entirely a speed optimization for the very special use case of nuget.org.

Hi Alana

Do you plan to support it?

At this time, the NuGet team has no plans to make the v3 API publicly consumable, and will support the v2 API indefinitely as the public API; as such, we have no intention to reverse engineer and attempt to implement a private API.

Note this it is entirely a "behind the scenes" transport mechanism (JSON vs XML) and makes no difference at all from a usage perspective.
