Share the Component Exchange's URL

After defining a project or an external server as the Component Exchange, share its URL with developers who'll upload components.

If you've defined an external server as the Component Exchange, share its URL as-it-is with developers.

If you've defined a project as the Component Exchange, share its URL in the https://{hostname}/{org_id}/s/{project_id}/compcatalog/0.2.0/ format. These steps tell you how to construct the URL in the required format.

1. Open the Component Exchange project's Project Home page.
2. In the Maven section of the Repositories tab, click the Project Repository's URLs drop-down list and then click the HTTPS URL's Copy icon.

   Example:

3. Paste the copied URL in a text editor.
4. In the copied URL, remove the profile/ and maven/ elements.
   For example, if the copied URL is https://vbs-vbstest.developer.ocp.oraclecloud.com/profile/vbs-vbstest/s/vbs-vbstest_my-project_902/maven/, then remove the elements marked in bold.

   After removing the elements, the URL should be similar to this:

   https://vbs-vbstest.developer.ocp.oraclecloud.com/vbs-vbstest/s/vbs-vbstest_my-project_902/

5. Append compcatalog/0.2.0 at the end of the URL.
   For example: https://vbs-vbstest.developer.ocp.oraclecloud.com/vbs-vbstest/s/vbs-vbstest_my-project_902/compcatalog/0.2.0
6. Share the URL with developers who'll upload components to the Component Exchange.
