We've just released several awesome improvements to our Entitlements and Metrics API endpoints in our quest to strive for API nirvana.
First up - at the request of many of our users, we now extended token lookup in the Entitlements API to resolve tokens by name and by token content. Historically users would have to make an API call to retrieve the Cloudsmith identifier of a token prior - but no more! Fewer calls, time saved, much happiness.
Next, our Metrics API. We've smoothed over the cracks here, bringing perfect 20/20 alignment to the Package Metrics API and the Entitlement Metrics API. Both these endpoints now provide bandwidth and downloads (and, of course, configurable with a timespan). Additionally, we now return a single dictionary response for these APIs instead of a list with a single dictionary.
This does mean there are some changes here that may alter your workflows. We've bumped the versions of our bindings and CLI to accommodate these improvements - a one and done way of getting these, for python:
pip install --upgrade cloudsmith_api cloudsmith_cli
Last (but by no means least) - we now support the ability to configure the visibility of the package statistics within a repository. Want to tighten access to administrators only in a valorous quest for privacy? We're here to help with that. This setting is now available in the Main Settings section of all repositories.
Happy Tuesday! <3 from the Cloudsmith Team.
Good news! When you're embedding version badges elsewhere, you'll probably have noticed that services like GitHub like to cache them for an excruciatingly long time*, often well beyond the lifetime of the package version itself. That changes today, along with a stylish (yes, stylish, not just style) update: Couple of things to note: The cache TTL…
Not your usual feature update, but we'll be updating our Terms of Service, effective 19th May 2021*: For all individual users, the following terms will apply, both replacing the existing terms: Individual Terms of Service Individual Privacy Policy For all organisations and organisation users, the following terms will apply, extending the above…

We're now rolling out Early Access to the "Access Log Exports to S3" feature: With our automated S3 export, you'll be able to get the access logs for your repositories delivered to you periodically. You pick the frequency and the output format, and we'll make the drop hassle-free. You can then import your logs into your favourite Business Intellig…
Cloudsmith has always performed signature and checksum validation at the core of the service - and today, we're introducing three awesome new ways to surface this information! User Interface The package information page now includes a link to retrieve the raw GPG signature for a package, using all of the same authentication schemes we support for…
