Affects: \


While building our application in CICD we found the plugins-release/net/swisstech/bitly-api-client/0.8.0 was no longer available in the https://repo.spring.io maven artifactory.

Was this intentional?

And if so there a replacement or something we can look at?

This is due to this change of policy: https://spring.io/blog/2022/12/14/notice-of-permissions-changes-to-repo-spring-io-january-2023

This artifact is unfortunately unavailable on our side now and I'm not sure where it came from in the first place. I think you should try and find another repository hosting this artifact if Maven Central does not host it. Otherwise, you'll have to build from sources I am afraid.

Ah that makes sense, thank you for your prompt response.

Maven central has a note that it is hosted in spring plugins repo. I am not sure how we could go about removing that disclaimer since it is no longer valid. Spring plugins-release/net/swisstech/bitly-api-client/0.8.0 no longer available I notice the github repo related to the artifact has open issues from 2019 -2021 to have it hosted there. Weird that it made its way to springs repo maybe a sub project pulled it in and mirrored it.

Regardless it seems its a valid removal and if we want it we need to rely on the owner to republish it or we have to publish it to a private repo.

Thanks again.

@straiforos note that mvnrepository.com is not Maven affiliated. This is an independent website that crawls and indexes public repositories. In this case it contains out of date information. I'll see if I can get in touch with them to remove our repository from their index as this is misleading.
