Start using Azure Artifacts

[!INCLUDE version-lt-eq-azure-devops]

Azure Artifacts provides developers with a streamlined way to manage all their dependencies from a single feed. These feeds serve as repositories for storing, managing, and sharing packages, whether within your team, across organizations, or publicly online. Azure Artifacts supports various package types, including NuGet, npm, Python, Maven, Cargo, and Universal Packages.

Prerequisites

Note

Azure Artifacts provides 2 GiB of free storage for each organization. This free tier is designed to help you evaluate if Azure Artifacts fits your workflow. As your organization starts handling more critical tasks, increase the storage limit for Azure Artifacts to ensure you have the appropriate resources.

View Artifacts storage consumption

Increase Azure Artifacts storage limit

Azure Artifacts is provided at no cost for every organization with up to 2 GiB of storage. When your organization reaches the maximum storage limit, you can't publish new artifacts. To continue, either delete some of your existing artifacts or follow these steps to increase your storage limit.

  1. Set up billing for your organization.

  2. Navigate to Organization settings > Billing and adjust your Artifacts usage limit by selecting No limit, pay for what you use from the dropdown menu.

FAQs

Q: How can I manage the retention duration for Artifacts?

A: You can set up the retention policies to automatically delete packages. See How to use retention policies to delete old packages for details.

Q: How do I delete specific packages?

A: See Delete and recover packages for details.

::: moniker range=" azure-devops"

Q: Which artifacts contribute to my total billed storage?

A: You are charged for all package types (npm, NuGet, Python, Maven, Cargo, and Universal Packages), including packages stored from upstream sources. However, there are no charges for Pipeline Artifacts and Pipeline Caching.

Note

Packages in the recycle bin contribute to your overall storage consumption. These packages are permanently deleted after 30 days. If you wish to remove them before that, go to your recycle bin and delete them manually.

Q: What are the implications if I remove my Azure Subscription from my Azure DevOps organization?

A: Removing your Azure Subscription from your Azure DevOps organization limits your access to the free tier. If your storage usage exceeds 2 GiB, you will have read-only access to packages. To publish new packages, you must reduce your storage usage below 2 GiB. Alternatively, you can reconnect an Azure subscription to your organization and set up billing to increase your storage tier.

Q: Why does my storage consumption show as 0 GiB even though I'm storing Artifacts?

A: The smallest unit of measurement for storage is currently 1 GiB, so it's probable that you didn't surpass the 1-GiB threshold yet.

Q: How long does it typically take for the removal of Artifacts to be reflected in the billed storage amount?

A: The deletion of artifacts may not be immediately reflected in the system. Storage consumption updates generally occur within 24 hours, but in some cases, it can take up to 48 hours. If you experience issues uploading artifacts, a temporary workaround is to increase your usage level and then reduce it once the storage metrics are updated.

The Used column on your organization's billing page is updated once a day. Therefore, when you delete an artifact, the change might not be reflected immediately. However, the Artifact Storage page is updated more frequently, so there may be a small discrepancy between the two pages.
