Use CodeArtifact with Visual Studio

• Note The AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio is not available for Visual Studio for Mac.

• Important To use the credential provider, ensure that any existing AWS CodeArtifact credentials are cleared from your nuget.config file that may have been added manually or by running aws codeartifact login to configure NuGet previously.

Use CodeArtifact with nuget or dotnet

• Important To use the credential provider, ensure that any existing AWS CodeArtifact credentials are cleared from your nuget.config file that may have been added manually or by running aws codeartifact login to configure NuGet previously.

• Important Linux and MacOS users: Because encryption is not supported on non-Windows platforms, your fetched credentials will be stored as plain text in your configuration file.

• Note To update an existing source, use the dotnet nuget update source command.

• Note When a package is requested, the NuGet client caches which versions of that package exists. Because of this behavior, an install may fail for a package that was requested before it was available. To avoid this failure and successfully install a package that exists, you can either clear the NuGet cache ahead of an install with nuget locals all --clear or use the --no-cache option when running nuget install or nuget restore.

• Note You can create a NuGet package if you do not have one to publish. For more information, see Package creation workflow in the Microsoft documentation.
