The Artifact Store implements the Docker Registry API v2 and accepts standard Docker authentication. You can authenticate using the Mistrive CLI for interactive sessions or service account keys for automation.

​
Image path format

Images in the Artifact Store follow this path structure: 
registry.example.com/{project_id}/{repository_id}/{image}:{tag}
For example: 
registry.example.com/my-project/backend/api-server:v1.2.3
  • registry.example.com — Your Artifact Store hostname
  • my-project — Project ID (not display name)
  • backend — Repository ID
  • api-server — Image name
  • v1.2.3 — Tag

​
Authentication methods

The Mistrive CLI generates short-lived Docker credentials from your browser session.
mistrive --endpoint api.example.com auth docker | docker login registry.example.com -u cli --password-stdin
This command:
  1. Opens your browser to authenticate (if not already logged in)
  2. Generates a Docker credential token
  3. Pipes it to docker login

​
Installing the CLI

curl -L https://cli.mistrive.com/mistrive-darwin-arm64 -o mistrive
chmod +x mistrive
sudo mv mistrive /usr/local/bin/
SHA256: 2f1d78ff49478c6fc9c95c20b0d4a547d3acde3ba1c41912254cc6a8bd66f137
Use this method for local development and interactive workflows where you’re working at a terminal.

​
Pushing images

After authenticating, push images using standard Docker commands. Tag your image with the full registry path: 
docker tag my-image:latest registry.example.com/my-project/backend/my-image:latest
Push to the registry: 
docker push registry.example.com/my-project/backend/my-image:latest
You need Editor access to the repository (or inherited from project/organization) to push images.

​
Pulling images

Pull images using the full registry path: 
docker pull registry.example.com/my-project/backend/my-image:latest
You need Viewer access to pull images. For public repositories (where allUsers has Viewer access), no authentication is required.

​
CI/CD integration examples

​
GitHub Actions

name: Build and Push

on:
  push:
    branches: [main]

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      
      - name: Login to Artifact Store
        run: |
          echo "${{ secrets.MISTRIVE_KEY }}" | docker login registry.example.com -u _json_b64 --password-stdin
      
      - name: Build and push
        run: |
          docker build -t registry.example.com/my-project/app/web:${{ github.sha }} .
          docker push registry.example.com/my-project/app/web:${{ github.sha }}

​
GitLab CI

build:
  image: docker:latest
  services:
    - docker:dind
  script:
    - echo "$MISTRIVE_KEY" | docker login registry.example.com -u _json_b64 --password-stdin
    - docker build -t registry.example.com/my-project/app/web:$CI_COMMIT_SHA .
    - docker push registry.example.com/my-project/app/web:$CI_COMMIT_SHA
Store MISTRIVE_KEY as a CI/CD variable containing the base64-encoded service account key.

​
Troubleshooting

​
”unauthorized: authentication required”

This error indicates either missing credentials or insufficient permissions.
  • Verify you’ve run docker login successfully
  • Check that your user or service account has at least Viewer access for pulls, Editor for pushes
  • Confirm the project and repository IDs in the image path are correct

​
”denied: access forbidden”

Your credentials are valid but lack permission for the requested operation.
  • For pushing: ensure Editor or Owner access on the repository
  • For pulling: ensure Viewer or higher access on the repository
  • Check permission inheritance to understand where access might be blocked

​
”name unknown: repository not found”

The specified repository doesn’t exist or you don’t have permission to see it.
  • Verify the project ID and repository ID
  • Ensure you have at least Viewer access to the project to see its repositories
