With new gitlab version CI reports unauthorized error when trying to restore nuget packages

Hi,

we upgraded gitlab from 13.7.1 to 13.8.4 on Friday 12.2.2021, and since the upgrade all our CI jobs on various projects are failing to restore dotnet nuget packages with (401) Unauthorized error. Even Visual Studio is reporting the same error.

We are using access tokens with read only access and before the upgrade everything was ok. We even tried recreating the tokens to no avail. I also entered my credentials which i use for logging into the gitlab and i receive the same error.

I went through all the settings that could have something to do with it, and i’m still getting (401) Unauthorized.

Any help would be appreciated

Figured it out eventually…now there are Deploy tokens that need to be used for access to nuget packages
