What is the best way if I want to keep my Release notes or any change sets details in Artifactory for each build that was created.
I am using Artifactory OSS version with Jenkins plug-in. I deploy my builds from Jenkins , Is there a way to store my release notes details from TFS in Artifactory ?
There is a tab in Artifactory "Release History" , Is the relevant tab to put my Release Notes.
Thanks
I am researching the exact same thing right now and I think I've found the answer.
Unfortunately I am not able to speak from experience yet, because I will start using Artifactory in a month or so.
Actual answer: I think you need to use Properties functionality of Artifactory.
There are two YouTube videos directly from JFrog regarding properties:
Artifactory 3.X - Using property-sets to tag and search for artifacts in Artifactory (yes, I know it's from 2009)
Artifactory 4.0 Jenkins Integration - the segments:
08:10 - Artifactory Build Info JSON
10:01 - Build Related Properties
10:36 - Properties Search

I am using Free Style Projects (in Jenkins) to schedule a regression test.
1. Get Source From BitBucket
2. Execute Windows Batch Command.
Earlier we are allowed to upload the jar files in Bitbucket. So we did not face any issue. Now Presently due to some changes in the process, we are not allowed to upload binaries which is affecting to upload jars in the Bitbucket.
Now, They gave given the artifactory url to set up for Maven. But we don't have any Maven projects.
It seems that artifactory is getting populated when it is hosted in the local. But we wanted to use the artifactory which is shared..
Can any one let me know the set up for free style project and the artifactory hosted in other machine and we have only URL.
Thanks
Here is documentation:

I recommend to use Maven Project.
i want to do release management with Jenkins but I'm confused. which artifactory should i use. Is there any opensource artifactory is there to do release management process through jenkins.I'm trying for the past month.
There is an open source version of "Artifactory" which you could use (https://bintray.com/jfrog/product/JFrog-Artifactory-Oss/view). As an alternative you can check out Nexus from sonatype: https://www.sonatype.com/nexus-repository-oss
If you don't want to install programs you can also go with a file based repository on a server. Whatever you like :)
I need to promote debian packages build in jenkins to the repo (aptly.. maybe artifactory). However, the available plugins seem to be broken for multiple branch projects. Has anybody found a solution to get around this?
You can use Artifactory Jenkins plugin for that. Define the deb files you want to upload (metadata will be generated by Artifactory for you).
Please note that you need to attach some properties to the uploaded files. From Jenkins you don't need to craft the URL, instead add the properties in the "Deployment properties" textfield.
We have successfully our deployed artifacts with Jenkins - Artifactory plugin, however we cannot see them in Artifacts => Builds => Published Modules tab.
We can see the link as below:
If we click onto this link, the upcoming screen is completely disabled and empty.
Shouldn't we have the downloadable link of our deployed artifacts in this final screen?
You are using Opensource version of Artifactory, which only allows browsing the buildInfo JSON file, not the Build Browser tabs.
You can replace the artifactory.war file to a pro version one (free 30 days trial), restart Artifactory and see all the information in the tabs.
I'm trying to setup Artifactory(free version) and Hudson to deploy artifacts.
The main stuff already works, i can deploy to Artifactory via Hudson. Using the Artifactory Hudson Plugin with generic deployment.
I am also able to browse the deployed stuff via the Tree & Simple Browser.
What not works correctly is the Build Browser, it does show everything except the artifacts deployed by the build. In the published modules view it should show all artifacts, but the tables are just greyed out for me.
Example how it should look:

Does anyone know if this view is maybe a pro feature, or any other tips how to resolve this problem?
The build integration feature is limited in the OSS version. You need the Pro version to get the full deal.
I've used the description setter plugin https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Description+Setter+Plugin . In my case i take the last revision and put a link to the artifact in artifactory. In this way on every build i can see a direct link to the artifact changing the path like you want.
