Nexus 3 deploy user permissions?

[Snorre Selmer]

Hi.

We upgraded to Nexus 3 today, and things are coming together nicely, except one thing: The user I made for Jenkins to upload to the Nexus server returns a 401 error.

I made a deploy-role that gives "All repositories" rights to do all actions except DELETE, and assigned this role to the user, but no luck. This is obviously wrong, but could anyone help me understand privileges and roles a bit better than what I have gleaned from the Nexus help site?

At a minimum I need to allow Jenkins to upload artifacts to all Maven2 and Docker type repos on our server. It already grabs artifacts fine. Delete is something we want to keep away from this user as a safety precaution.

Yours, Snorre

OK, a reply (that appears to have been deleted?) got me on the right track.

I had to make a role with nx-repository-view-maven2-*-add/browse/edit/read and I got it working.
