Add centralized secure feed

Hi,

We have private feeds that requires a set of credentials. For now we need to add this on each machine for each user. The credential is the same.

It is possible to centralize control of feeds in the automation ops, but only for public feeds. Please add support for secure private feeds.

Hi Markus,
Thank you for your feedback, it is a good use-case!
We are looking into adding support for secure private feeds in Automation Ops.
In the meanwhile would you please share a little bit your setup, to see if there are any particularities to it?

Sorry for the delayed reply,

Hi
Sure. We have a private Azure feed with activies and framework as part of our cicd. Handling private feeds are very complicated and needs us to manually handle it

Thank you for sharing that. I will keep you updated when it gets onto the roadmap.

Hi Alexandru

Currently we have to add the feed manually to nuget.config for each individual entity, robots, users etc.

Are there any way to add a (public) feed as a template feed in addition to market and orchestator? i.e. to host our framework and then have the template packages visible in the template tab from studio.

I have tried using the automation Ops manage feed function, but it seems to replace the existing library feed, if I deploy our custom library feed.

Hi Markus,

If I correctly understand the problem, you would like to add your template feed so to be available in the Template tab in Studio.
Currently the functionality to add feeds for users is only available for package feeds.
Thank you for sharing this use case too.
We will take a look at how can we improve on this area so to be able to add Template feeds as well.

Hi Alexandru, have you any update on this feature?

Hi @MarkusDS , I can confirm that both your suggestions have been recorded:
For Automation Ops to support:

  • Secure private feeds
  • Template feeds

Regarding the timeline I cannot commit to any dates since there are a few other things we already have on our plate. Thank you for your understanding, but I don’t want to set the wrong expectations.

We are continously looking into ways of improving our product so I would be glad for any suggestion or advise on the topic.

Hi, have you added the secure private feeds to Automation Ops?

Hi @NikitaSolodovnikov ,
No, it is not yet added.

Hi, do you have any update on this matter? Maybe, you have it planned in a delivery pipeline?

@NikitaSolodovnikov , @MarkusDS Orchestrator has added support for Username/Password authentication for external library feeds.
