# Artifactory integration

Release integrates with Artifactory so you can pull images from private repositories.

Go to **Configuration -> External Registries** and click **Connect an External Registry**.

Add your account information to create the integration.

{% hint style="warning" %}
When entering the host for your Artifactory account, please do not add a protocol (https\://, http\://, [www](http://www)., etc) to the beginning.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
The Repository Location field refers to where the artifacts reside in Artifactory, typically this is docker-local or docker. See the [Artifactory documentation](https://www.jfrog.com/confluence/display/JFROG/Docker+Registry) for more information.
{% endhint %}

To set your image, add it to your Application Template:

```
services:
- name: your-special-service
  image: yourartifactoryaccount/image:tag
```

The service `your-special-service` cannot have the `build` or `has_repo` keys. Those keys indicate that Release has built the image and Release will not attempt to pull the image from your Artifactory repository.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.release.com/integrations/integrations-overview/artifactory-integration.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
