Configuring External Package Feeds in UiPath Orchestrator (Artifactory and MyGet)

UiPath Orchestrator allows administrators to configure external NuGet package feeds to store and retrieve automation packages instead of using the default internal feed. External feeds are commonly used when organizations want to integrate Orchestrator with enterprise artifact repositories such as JFrog Artifactory or MyGet.

Using an external package feed enables centralized package management, better integration with CI/CD pipelines, and alignment with organizational artifact governance practices.

This article explains how to configure public and private external package feeds using Artifactory and MyGet and how to connect them to UiPath Orchestrator.

Prerequisites

Before configuring an external package feed, ensure the following requirements are met:

  • Administrative access to UiPath Orchestrator.

  • Access to the external package repository (Artifactory or MyGet).

  • Required permissions to view or generate feed URLs and API keys in the external repository.

  • Network connectivity between the Orchestrator server and the external feed.

  • A compatible NuGet feed endpoint (v2 or v3) provided by the repository.
