Configure Installation from Artifactory Repository

Set up the repository folder structure in Artifactory (one-time step).

Create the JSON configuration file required for installing products from the repository (one-time step).

Download products from MathWorks using mpm download.

Upload the products to your organization's Artifactory repository.

In Artifactory, either create a new repository or reuse an existing repository. In both cases, the repository type must be set to Generic. Sample repository URL:

http://artifactory.example.com/artifactory/my-repo

In the top-level folder of your Artifactory repository, create a subfolder named MathWorks for storing MathWorks releases.

MathWorks/

In later steps, when you download product releases from MathWorks, you will upload these releases to the MathWorks subfolder. Each product release and update will be stored in a separate subfolder under the MathWorks folder (for example, R20XXaU0, R20XXaU1, and so on). This folder structure shows a repository with multiple uploaded releases and updates:

  MathWorks/
    R20XXaU0/
    R20XXaU1/
    R20XXaU2/
    ...
    R20XXbU0/
    R20XXbU1/
    R20XXbU2/
    ...

Create a JSON file. For example: my_repo_config.json.

Copy the following contents into the JSON file:

{
  "repository_configuration": [
    {
      "name": "my-repo",
      "url": "https://my-artifactory-instance/my-repo",
      "type": "artifactory",
      "repository_layout": {
        "mathworks_products": "MathWorks"
      },
      "auth": {
        "type": "token",
        "access_token": "${ARTIFACTORY_ACCESS_TOKEN}"
      }
    }
  ]
}

Modify the JSON file fields for your repository.

Save the JSON file in a location that users can access, such as a shared drive. If users can download files from your Artifactory repository, consider uploading the file to your Artifactory repository.

Get the latest version of mpm by following the instructions in Get MATLAB Package Manager.

Download the products using mpm download. For example, download the initial (update 0) R2025b release of Simulink^® and Deep Learning Toolbox™ for use on both Linux^® (glnxa64) and Windows (win64) platforms. Replace <USER> with your computer username. mpm also downloads the required product, MATLAB.

Linux or Mac:

./mpm download --release=R2025bU0 --destination=/home/<USER>/Downloads/R2025bU0 --platforms=glnxa64 win64 --products=Simulink Deep_Learning_Toolbox

Windows^®:

.\mpm.exe download --release=R2025bU0 --destination=C:\Users\<USER>\Downloads\R2025bU0 --platforms=glnxa64 win64 --products=Simulink Deep_Learning_Toolbox

To download a large number of products, use the --inputfile option to specify the products in an input file. For details, see the example Download Products Using Input File on the mpm download reference page.

Using your preferred tool, compress the release folder you downloaded into a ZIP file. For example, navigate to the downloaded folder and use zip (Linux or Mac) or tar (Windows) to compress the contents into a ZIP file in the parent folder, Downloads.

Linux or Mac:

cd /home/<USER>/Downloads/R2025bU0
zip -r ../R2025bU0.zip ./*
cd ..

Windows (command prompt):

cd C:\Users\<USER>\Downloads\R2025bU0
tar -a -c -f ..\R2025bU0.zip *
cd ..

Depending on the number of products downloaded, this process can take several minutes. The compressed ZIP file should contain the subfolders and file shown in this example:

R2025bU0.zip
  archives/
  mpm/
  ProductFilesInfo.xml

In the MathWorks folder of your Artifactory repository, create a subfolder in which to upload the ZIP file. To create this subfolder, use JFrog CLI or your preferred tool. The example below shows how to create the folder using curl, a command-line REST API for making HTTPS web requests.

Linux or Mac:

curl --user <USER>:<PASSWORD> \
     --request PUT \
     "https://my-artifactory-instance/my-repo/MathWorks/R2025bU0/"

Windows (command prompt):

curl --user <USER>:<PASSWORD> ^
     --request PUT ^
     "https://my-artifactory-instance/my-repo/MathWorks/R2025bU0/"

The curl command includes these options:

Upload the ZIP file to the product release folder you just created in your Artifactory repository. Use JFrog CLI or your preferred tool. The example below shows how to upload the ZIP file using curl.

Linux or Mac:

curl --user <USER>:<PASSWORD> \
     --header "X-Explode-Archive:true" \
     --request PUT \
     --upload-file /home/<USER>/downloads/R2025bU0.zip \
     "https://my-artifactory-instance/my-repo/MathWorks/R2025bU0/"

Windows (command prompt):

curl --user <USER>:<PASSWORD> ^
     --header "X-Explode-Archive:true" ^
     --request PUT ^
     --upload-file "C:\Users\<USER>\Downloads\R2025bU0.zip" ^
     "https://my-artifactory-instance/my-repo/MathWorks/R2025bU0/"

The curl command includes these options:
