Hi @k_2363,

We cannot get the endpoint ApiKeys_CreateOrUpdateApiKey to get to work. It seems that the JSON requires ApiKeyTasks_Table (IEnumerable1)`. Unfortunately we cannot find what we have to provide here. If i look at the Stored Procedure, it seems that this cannot be filled with an API request.

Hmm, it looks like you may not be able to use table-value parameters via JSON. I don't know how easy that will be to add support for; one option is just to just do direct INSERT statements into ApiKeys and ApiKeyTasks tables. I'm aware of at least one other user that does that, since it was significantly easier to do a single statement that joined on another table in another database on the same SQL Server.

It's not ideal, but this is pretty rare use case.

Would that work?

Thanks,
Steve

Hi @k_2363,

However your explanation for [3] doesn't seem to be right in our case. We're using the 'Pull to ProGet' button to download packages from an Azure DevOps Artifact to our ProGet feed, however when the package hasn't been downloaded yet it shows in the Feed with a Antenna icon.

Actually this won't work with the Common Package API; this API works only with local packages, and does not query connectors. So instead, you'll need to download the package file from the NuGet endpoint (which does connectors).

You can find the download URL by looking in the front-end, and generating a file url from that. But it's basically like this for NuGet/chocolatey packages: /nuget/<feed_name>/package/<package_name>/<package_version>

Hi @w-repinski_1472 ,

Based on your initial usage, I think SQL Server Express will suffice. The ProGet database is basically a package metadata index, and essentially stores things like package name, version number, and a variety of things including the manifest file (.nuspec, package.json, etc). It's maybe a few kb per package, and you'll need 100k's of packages to even reach 1GB of metadata storage.

In your information you state that network connections are the bottleneck. I don't understand this completely in times when we have 100G cards, maybe I don't understand the scale on which ProGet is used in other companies.

The issue is with the number of connections, and a single server struggling with 100's of expensive queries/requests per second. Running "nuget restore" or "npm restore" will hammer the repository with 1000's of simultaneous requests, and many of those need to go to nuget.org or npm.json to be resolved. When you have multiple users and multiple build servers running these kinds of restores, then you run into load issues.

At about 50 users, a load-balanced / high-availability cluster starts to make sense. After 250 users, sticking to just a single server doesn't make a lot of sense (cost of downtime is expensive). Once you need a server cluster, then upgrading SQL Server would probably make sense.

There's a big cost difference between a single server and a server cluster - in part the ProGet licensing fees, but also managing a server cluster is more complicated. Some organizations prefer to start with high-availability right away rather than worry about upgrading later.

See How to Prevent Server Overload in ProGet to learn more.

hope that helps clarify!

Hi @cimen-eray1_6870 ,

Great questions; there's no problem having a second instance with ProGet Free Edition.

The relevant restriction is that you can't use a Connector in ProGet Free Edition to connect to another instance of ProGet (either another Free Edition or your paid edition).

Hopefully you can use your Maven feed as a proof of concept for implementing it in the main instance. Good luck!

Cheers,
Steve

Hi @ccordova_8628 ,

ProGet requires SQL Server; Postgre/MySQl are not supported.

Hi @brett-polivka ,

It looks like you've got something configured incorrectly; the endpoint should be something like:
http://<redacted>/pypi/maglabs/simple

Hi @priyanka-m_4184 ,

It sounds like you have package statistics enabled; as you can see, this table gets really big over several years.

If you aren't using this data and don't care about it, then just run TRUNCATE PackageDownloads and disable the feature.

Another big table is often EventOccurences, but usually that's much smaller.

Here is query that will purge data from those tables before 2023:

DECLARE @DELETED INT = 1
WHILE (@DELETED > 0)
BEGIN
    BEGIN TRANSACTION
    
    -- PURGE OLD DATA
    DELETE TOP (10000) [PackageDownloads]
    WHERE [Download_Date] < '2023-01-01'
    SET @DELETED = @@ROWCOUNT
   
    -- PURGE OLD EVENTS
    DELETE TOP (10000) [EventOccurrences]
    WHERE [Occurrence_Date] < '2023-01-01'
    SET @DELETED = @DELETED + @@ROWCOUNT
    
    COMMIT
    CHECKPOINT 
END

Hi @justin-zollar_1098 ,

At first, it looks like debug-level logging is enabled, so I would definitely disable that under Admin > Advanced Settings > Diagnostics.MinimumLogLevel. It should be 20.

The most common reason for a SQL Timeout (i.e. if you google the problem) is a SQL query that is taking too long. That shouldn't happen in Otter, but it sometimes does, especially when there is a lot of data and some non-optimzed queries.

A SQL Timeout when starting the Otter Service is unusual, and it may not be related to SQL queries.

The first thing I would check... are these queries actually taking that long to run in the database? You can use a tool like SQL Server Profiler or resource monitor, which will show you what's going on. You can then try running those queries directly against the database, and see if they're also taking an eternity.

It's very possible that SQL Server isn't the issue at all. It could be network related - and we've even seen some bad Windows updates trigger some strange side-effects to the Windows wait handles.

Hi @jerome-virot_4088 ,

Linux does not support UNC paths, so you'll need to mount the appropriate machine and drive to a local directory under the Linux OS. Once this has been done, you can then map the volume in your Docker container, and configure the Drop Path in ProGet.

Steve

Hi Justin,

The Inedo Agent Service is generally something that you'd run on a remote server; if it's crashing on start-up, then the error message would be in the Windows Event Log. The most likely reason is not sufficient permissions or invalid configuration.

The error message that you're sharing is from the Otter Web application, and it's happening while trying to view the "Admin > Diagnostic Center". That's an unrelated problem... but it's also a bit unusual, as there shouldn't be more than 1000 entries in that table.

The first thing I would investigate is the data the underlying table. You can just run SELECT * FROM [LogMessages] ORDER BY [LogMessage_Id] DESC , and peek at what's there.

That won't help with the agent, but it will help troubleshoot other issues. There definitely shouldnt' be atime out there.

Cheers,
Steve

Hi @jfullmer_7346 ,

The ProGet Service (and WebApp if using IIS) will crash when the database is no longer accessible. Based on the error messages, that exactly the case. The "good news" isn't that isn't ProGet related, so that at least gives you one less place to look.

It looks like you're using the SQL Server on the same machine ("shared memory provider"), but I'm not totally sure. If that's the case, then my guess is that the SQL Server is crashing; you'd have to check SQL Server's event/error logs for that. It's very rare for SQL Server to crash, and I'd be worried that it's a sign of hardware failure.

Beyond that, I don't have any specific trips/ticks on research SQL Server connectivity problems, but but if you search ...

• "shared memory provider error 40" (it was in the error message I saw)
• "SQL Server v??? crashing" (assuming this is the case, whatever your version is)
• specific error messages from SQL server's event/error logs about the time it crashed

... you'll find lots of advice all over the place, since this could impact pretty much any software that uses SQL Server.

Good luck and let us know what you find!

Thanks,
Steve

@nathan-wilcox_0355 great to know!

And if you happen to have a shareable script, by all means post the results here - we'd love to share it on the docs, to help other users see some real-world use case

Hi @w-repinski_1472,

Unfortunately integrating with Clair v4 cannot be done with only a new plug-in / extension. It requires substantial changes to the vulnerability feature/module in ProGet, so it's something we would have to consider in a major version like ProGet 2024.

Thanks,
Steve

Hi @cole-bagshaw_3056 ,

The web interface and API are powered by the same program (the ProGet web server application), so if the UI is accessible so would the API, as you noticed.

In this case, this error message is coming from your reverse proxy (NGINX); I would check with your configuration there, as something is misconfigured.

The first and most obvious thing I would check is the hostname/port of your URLs. It's possible that you're accessing different hosts/domains. This is controlled by the X-Forwarded headers.

Hope that points you in the right direction

Cheers,
Steve

@sebastian it looks liike the "set package status" only appears for Local Packages...

When testing this, I noticed that there was a bug with the release analyzer; basically it's a constraint that wasn't properly added. We'll fix this via PG-2428, but you can just run this script - and deprecated packages should show up. At least on my machine :)

ALTER TABLE [ProjectReleaseIssues23]
DROP CONSTRAINT [CK__ProjectReleaseIssues23__IssueType_Code]

ALTER TABLE [ProjectReleaseIssues23]
	-- [V]ulerability, [M]issing Package, [O]utdated Package, [L]icensing Issue, [D]eprecated
  ADD CONSTRAINT [CK__ProjectReleaseIssues23__IssueType_Code]
		CHECK ([IssueType_Code] IN ('V', 'M', 'O', 'L', 'D'))

Is there a way to list all packages that are cached by ProGet?

That API will allow you to list all packages in a feed; you'd basically want to query NuGet for each of those packages.

Hi @sebastian ,

This behavior is "intentional" but not ideal; we simply add the package file to the feed but don't set any server-side metadata properties.

This seems like something we should change, so I logged PG-2426 to address this; perhaps we'll get it in the next maintenance release. It seems relatively simple, but I didn't look too deeply

Best,
Steve

Hi @jw ,

Ah, I can see how that would happen; I logged this as PG-2425 and we'll try to get it fixed in the upcoming maintenance release.

Steve

Hi @vishal_2561 ,

Can you provide us with a full log/stack trace? That's an unusual error and we'd like to get some more context on where it's coming from.

Thanks,
Steve

Hi @sebastian ,

In ProGet 2023, deprecation information will be shown on the package page and through API:

The information is passed through connectors and can be set on local packages on the package status page:

They should also show up as issues in SCA reports.

However, as you noticed, it is server-side metadata (like listing status, download count, package owners, etc.), and we don't have any mechanism to "sync" server-side metadata from connectors at this time. That may come in ProGet 2024 but it's not trivial to generalize.

However, you could probably write a script that uses the new Common Package API to easily retrieve packages from a feed, check their status on nuget.org, and update deprecated info.

Best,
Steve

Hi @caterina ,

This behavior is intentional, but not ideal. It should only navigation - such as the "Usage & Statics" page on a package, or the "List Projects" page which has a "Latest Release" column. As long as the Release is active, you'll still see new issues come up.

That's really what determines if a release is scanned or not - Active or not.

The reason for this... an SCA Release's "Release Number" is a free-form field, which means there are no sorting rules. So we can't practically/easily determine what the "highest" number. Instead, we just use the order in which it was created for display purposes.

Thanks,
Steve

Hi @Justinvolved,

That error happens when HostName is not set:
https://github.com/Inedo/inedox-ftp/blob/master/FTP/InedoExtension/Operations/FtpOperationBase.cs#L120

HostName should be mapped from the Resource, but unfortunately it doesn't look like we have validation code in there to indicate if there's an invalid Resource name; it just silently fails:
https://github.com/Inedo/inedox-ftp/blob/master/FTP/InedoExtension/Operations/FtpOperationBase.cs#L160

So, I'm guessing that the resource isn't being retrieved properly; can you try putting global:: in front of the ResourceName? Since you mentioned it's global...

Cheers,
Steve

@vishal_2561 please restart the BUildMaster service and wait for a few minutes for the servers to update; if there's still issues, please post details to a new topic :)

@hwittenborn it's generally in C:\ProgramData\Inedo\SharedConfig\ProGet.config; here's information about where to find the configuration file:
https://docs.inedo.com/docs/installation-configuration-files

It's just sample code; you would need to write a C# program (or whatever language you'd like) that follows that same logic to decrypt the content stored in SecretKeys using AES128

I'm not entirely how SecretKeys are persisted, but I think either base64 or hex literals

Hi @pariv_0352,

Thanks for clarifying; looking closer, ProGet requires that X-Forwarded-Host is simply a hostname. You're right, there is no "standard" for this, but that's what ProGet does for the time being.. and if the input is invalid, then you get the error you'll see.

I would change your reverse-proxy header configuration to:

• X-Forwarded-Host: www.testdomain.com
• X-Forwarded-Port: 82

Hope that helps,
Steve

If you're looking for nuget.org-specific metadata, I recommend querying nuget.org directly; of course if you need to work-around internet access issues, you could configure a special feed/connector with no caching.

But if you're looking for latest version of a package, the registration API is your best choice. That's what Visual Studio (NuGet client) does for every package and dependency, every time a restore happens.

Hi @jw,

While we added the published-by column to the database, it seems that it's not being populated properly in all cases; we'll get it fixed by PG-2413 .

Cheers,
Steve

Hi @aivanov_3749 ,

I'm afraid the reply is the same :(

ProGet 2023 is effectively a new database architecture entirely, and while we tested every possible scenario we could imagine (as well as dozens of customer databases), some regressions are to be expected. It's also possible that there was a bug or edge case in the old retention rules, and the packages that should have been deleted weren't/

Upgrading to ProGet 2023 will automatically disable all retention rules on all feeds, and you'll be prompted to attempt a dry run before re-enabling them. The best way to troubleshoot retention rules deleting unexpected packages is to use the "dry run" feature. This will let you tweak the rules, and find which setting is behaving unexpectedly.

If you can let us know specifics or provide those execution logs, we will definitely do our best to identify the underlying cause.

Thanks,
Steve

Hi @rosario-digiovanni_1930 ,

In an ideal environment, when a user is logged into a domain-joined Windows workstation, then Visual Studio or Edge/Chrome should never prompt the user when WIA is enabled. This applies to ProGet, or any other site/webapp that uses WIA.

However, there are many things that can go wrong, and cause WIA to break. Even something as simple as an out-of-sync clock on a workstation. We've written some docs that try to explain how WIA works and give some tips on how to troubleshoot the issue:
https://docs.inedo.com/docs/various-ldap-troubleshooting#integrated-authentication-not-working

My personal opinion is that WIA was designed for a time before password managers and when everyone worked in an office without VPN. You may find it just not worthwhile to use.

NOTE: you can still use your domain credentials (i.e. Active Directory / LDAP), but users will just be required to enter them into ProGet. They can use an API key inside of Visual Studio.

Cheers,
Steve

@v-makkenze_6348 said in Reporting & Software Composition Analysis (SCA) shows many unresolved Issues:

I repackaged the Owin package but didn't relalize that that would break all my builds as the dll's are now in a 1.0.0 folder where all the project files expect them in the 1.0 folder.
I guess this would work if the projects are in sdk project format but most of them are not.

Unfortunately, a consequence of those quirky versions. Hopefully it won't be too bad to update those projects/references with a bit of search/replace :)

Hi @sebastian,

could you tell me what you mean by disabling the SCA feature in the Feed Features? I don't think I've seen this option in the Feed Features

This is new to ProGet 2023, and you can find it under the Manage Feed page:

Also: there are at least two mechanisms in ProGet to block/allow package downloads: license filters and package filters (in the feed's connector settings). What happens when you combine those filters? Is a package always blocked when it is blocked by one mechanism and allowed by the other? What happens if we'd set the default license filter rule to "Block downloads by default" and allow packages like Microsoft.* in the Nuget connector? Could Microsoft.* packages without a known license be downloaded or would they be blocked?

A package can be blocked due to vulnerabilities, licenses, connector filters, or package filters rules (i.e. white source). Any one of those will block a download, so I think in your case "Microsoft.* packages without a known license" would be blocked.

This can be overridden at a package level, FYI:

Cheers,
Steve

Hi @v-makkenze_6348 ,

Unfortunately it's a bit difficult to troubleshoot what happened with the information provided...

The best way to troubleshoot retention rules deleting unexpected packages is to use the "dry run" feature. This will let you tweak the rules, and find which setting is behaving unexpectedly.

FYI, retention rules do not consider package statistics ("download history".. i.e. records of individual downloads) but instead use "last download date" and "download count" (metadata fields on the package version). If you delete a package, and then re-add it, the "download count" would effectively reset to zero, but the "download history" records would still remain.

Hope that helps,
Steve

@guyk thanks for letting us know; unfortunately this would require a substantial change to the way we handle authentication on connectors; if we see more of this down the line we'll definitely consider it further :)

@sebastian said in Reporting & Software Composition Analysis (SCA) shows many unresolved Issues:

I just noticed that the fix seems to be offered only for "short" versions (i.e. 1.0 to 1.0.0) but not for "long" versions (i.e. 1.0.0.0 to 1.0.0). Is this intended? I think that in cases where the last version part is 0, long versions could be auto-fixed the same way as short version.

A four-part version is not considered a "quirky version" (it's still supported by NuGet), but for some reason the NuGet client/API will occasionally drop the last 0 (e.g. 1.0.0.0 -> 1.0.0), but not always (e.g. 2.1.0.0 isn't dropped?). So we didn't bother with figuring out the rules when displaying that helper-dialog.

[1] Packages with packageid:// type licenses are still reported as "Unknown License". According to PG-2381 this should have been fixed in 2023.7, but it seems that the problem still persists. When I look at the package's page, the (manually applied) license is displayed correctly, but the SCA report still does not recognize it.

Can you create a new thread/ticket for this, with some specific repro instructions/packages (or attach an SBOM so we can very easily recreate it)? This could could be related to PG-2405, but we'd want to see some specific examples of packages to test.

[2] We have a certain license type which is allowed in some feeds and blocked in other feeds. We do this to make sure that packages with that license are downloaded from the "correct" feed. This has worked fine so far. However, starting with ProGet 2023, all packages with that specific license show up as issues in our SCA reports. How can we get rid of that? Manually resolving those issues is not an option, as we are talking about ~100 affected packages on a project with daily builds.

This was actually how ProGet 2022 was supposed to work: if a package download would be blocked in at least one feed, then an issue will be created. The reason for this, pgscan (or an SBOM ) won't know/specify the feed the package is being used from.

The solution we have is to disable the "SCA feature" on the Feed Features. Would that work? We're open to other ideas, but you can see the problem we have... which feed should the analysis use? Etc.

// FYI: might be worth opening a new topic for this one, since it's a different issue as well

Thanks @sebastian, that's pretty much it :)

The underlying issue is that Visual Studio (NuGet) is referencing 1.0.0 while the actual package uses a quirky version 1.0. ProGet does not fully support quirky versions, and the SCA Feature will not try to resolve those differences.

If you have a "quirky version" of a NuGet package, ProGet 2023 will prompt you to fix it:

In the case of the above, I just created a blank NuGet feed and downloaded "Owin 1.0.0". Then Owin 1.0 appeared in the feed. Anyway, once you fix the quirky versions its should work fine.

Cheers,
Steve

Hi @dionc_5568 ,

Great question; I've updated the documentation as follows:

Usage (CLI/tool)

Execute pgscan with the identify command. For example, to generate an SBOM and submit the dependencies of v1.0.0 the MyLibrary project to ProGet:

_
pgscan identify --input=MyLibrary.csproj --proget-url=https://proget.local --version=1.0.0
_

Note that the identify command requires ProGet 2022 and later. If you're using ProGet 6.0, you'll need to use the now-deprecated publish command; see the old version of this README to learn how.

Hopefully that makes it clear. But yes, please just use identify. It uses a different API that's much slower and will be removed in later versions of ProGet.

Hi @espen-blikstad_6547,

Please check the Web.BaseUrl property under advanced settings; when that is set, the X-Forwarded headers will not be used.

Thanks,
Steve

@guyk there were some changes to containers with the implicit library changes in ProGet 2023, however we didn't encounter this error when testing

can you confirm that this works in ProGet 2022, but not 2022? What architecture are you using, sometimes it's related to so-called "fat manifests"?

Hi @jimbobmcgee,

I haven't seen this option in too many tools that use SSH; and actually it's the first time I've even heard of this as an option. But I'm not an SSH expert by anymeans, so no idea if this is common.

We use libssh2, and I have no idea if it's technically possible. We use the libssh2_userauth_password_ex(IntPtr session, IntPtr username, uint username_len, IntPtr password, uint password_len, IntPtr passwd_change_cb) method to authenticate.

Unless it's absolutely trivial to change (like a simple flag on libssh2 or something), it probably doesn't make sense for us to invest in this feature... unless it came from a from a paid user trying to solve a specific problem/usecase that we could work together on.

SSH is already difficult to support/maintain, so this would add more complexity to testing, debugging, documentation, etc... and we've got enough of that already heh

Cheers,
Steve

Hi @markus-karthaus_8928 ,

I haven't seen that error before.

It's coming from the .NET cryptography library, and when searching for the error message ("The key contents do not contain a PEM, the content is malformed, or the key does not match the certificate."), I'm not getting any hints on specific "gotchas" or ways to resolve the error.

This is where the error is coming from:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.security.cryptography.x509certificates.x509certificate2.createfromencryptedpem?view=net-6.0

So I think the issue must be that the PEM is "invalid" - at least according to the library we're using. I wish I had more information on that, but perhaps you can try a different way to generate it, or try a different way to configure HTTPS.

Cheers,
Steve

We don't maintain the Jenkins extension, but I wonder if you entered an API Key? It looks blank on that screen...

I'm really not sure what the error means otherwise ...

Hi @sebastian ,

[1] That definitely doesn't sound right; that didn't happen when we tested, so we'll have to check that out, it could be a bug...

[2] 274/566 seems awfully high; several do not have scores, but since we have to compute the score ourselves with equations like these, it's very possible that the underlying data isn't formatted perfect or there's a bug somewhere -- can you share the examples you found so we can investigate?

[3] This is expected; it seems that many (or most) vulnerabilities in the database do not have a conspicuous CVE number (perhaps they're not CVEs??), and in those cases, the descriptions are very thorough... it's a huge dataset so we're still learning what's in it.

Cheers,
Steve

Hi @rie_6529 ,

It's hard to say; one possibility is that your server is overloaded. If you have multiple build servers, multiple connectors, etc., then it's like a denial of service attack. Under Admin > Advanced Settings, there is a setting called Web.ConcurrentRequestLimit; I would configure that to 500.

Next, I would investigate SQL Server, and see where/what queries are taking a ton of time.

With the new indexing system in ProGet 2023, it's possible we missed a SQL index or something. We tested with absolutely massive datasets, but it's hard to say.

Cheers,
Steve

Hi @reincarnator247_4909 , please submit a ticket for this with as many details as you can (types of error messages, configuration, etc.), so we can properly review and give advice. It's very case-by-case.

Hi @rie_6529 ,

Did you allow the data migration to complete?

That can take a significant amount of time if you have a lot of packages (which you likely do).

That's the only thing that would cause an issue like that which I can think of. Here's the full upgrade notes:
https://docs.inedo.com/docs/proget-upgrade-2023

Steve

Hi @sebastian,

Thanks for clarifying that :)

[1] auto-assess should work just fine; that would be our recommendation anyway

[2] this is what we thought too, but there were just so few that this would have worked on that we gave up

So in that case, you can just enable PGVC, enabled download blocking on the feed, and then you'll get all the new PGVC vulnerabilities added to the system after running a Vulnerability Download scheduld job.

If you delete the OSSIndex source, then all the vulnerabilities/assessments will be deleted.

There was a very long-standing bug where ProGet wouldn't update or delete a vulnerability if it was updated/deleted at the source. We fixed that in 2023.

Now I can't say for certain if that's what happened here... but we noticed that some similar erroneous vulnerabilities -- like a vulnerability with a mangled title or some other data entry problem -- disappeared after a nightly scan.

FYI - expiration dates won't delete the assessments, it'll just consider them invalid

Hope that helps!

Hi @jw ,

The version number is a bit buried in the logs I believe, but it sounds like things are working now... and it's too much of a guessing game to figure out what might have happened now.

Cheers,
Steve

Hi @sebastian ,

We actually used your set to analyze this - and we just couldn't come up with a solution.

The PGVC found more total vulnerabilities than OSS Index did, but without doing some really complex code or machine learning something, we couldn't figure out an simple way to reconcile the two datasets.

Many of the OSS Index vulnerabilities didn't list a CVE number, and the titles and descriptions were different - but it seemed like they were talking about the same problem in the same package.

We gave up after that. Open to ideas for sure!

Thanks,
Steve

Hi @cshipley_6136 ,

Since it sounds like there's some logs/sensitive info.. I just submitted a ticket on your behalf (EDO-9257), so we'll work to troubleshoot from there!

Hi @martin-helgesen_8100 ,

Nothing new I'm afraid; you're the second user who's inquired about this so far.

We do have several customers using Terraform and ProGet, either using universal packages (like @jeff-miles_5073 suggested) or using Asset Directories. We asked them a while back if they had interest for a "proper" Private Registry, and the response was that even if it was available... they likely wouldn't use it because it would involve changing their system, and they saw no benefit to a feed.

We know basically nothing about Terraform and have done no research into the costs/complexity of implementing a registry. Do other products/vendors support this?

The first "red flag" on my end is this:

Terraform can use versioned modules from any service that implements the registry API. The Terraform open source project does not provide a server implementation, but we welcome community members to create their own private registries by following the published protocol.

In our experience, documentation is almost always outdated and inaccurate. So this means lots of reverse-engineering of API protocols and lots of debugging.

Not saying it's impossible, but we'd definitely need community support to make it happen. Check out how the rpm feeds came to be - if it's something you can prototype in Asset Directories (for example), that could go a long way in making it a first-class feed in ProGet :)

Cheers,
Steve

Hi @msimkin_1572 , good idea! I just added a small note at the bottom, where we specify manifest. To be honest, I didn't even know that was possible
