push command (NuGet CLI)
Applies to: package publishing • Supported versions: all; 4.1.0+ required for nuget.org
Important
To push packages to nuget.org you must use nuget.exe v4.1.0+, which implements the required NuGet protocols.
Pushes a package to a package source and publishes it.
NuGet's default configuration is obtained by loading %AppData%\NuGet\NuGet.Config
(Windows) or ~/.nuget/NuGet/NuGet.Config
(Mac/Linux), then loading any Nuget.Config
or .nuget\Nuget.Config
files starting from root of drive and ending in current directory (see Common NuGet configurations)
Usage
nuget push <packagePath> [options]
where <packagePath>
identifies the package to push to the server.
Options
-ApiKey
The API key for the target repository. If not present, the one specified in the config file is used.
-ConfigFile
The NuGet configuration file to apply. If not specified,
%AppData%\NuGet\NuGet.Config
(Windows), or~/.nuget/NuGet/NuGet.Config
or~/.config/NuGet/NuGet.Config
(Mac/Linux) is used.-DisableBuffering
Disables buffering when pushing to an HTTP(s) server to decrease memory usages. Caution: when this option is used, integrated Windows authentication might not work.
-ForceEnglishOutput
(3.5+) Forces nuget.exe to run using an invariant, English-based culture.
-?|-help
Displays help information for the command.
-NonInteractive
Suppresses prompts for user input or confirmations.
-NoServiceEndpoint
Does not append
api/v2/packages
to the source URL.-NoSymbols
(3.5+) If a symbols package exists, it will not be pushed to a symbol server.
-src|-Source
Specifies the server URL. NuGet identifies a UNC or local folder source and simply copies the file there instead of pushing it using HTTP. Also, starting with NuGet 3.4.2, this is a mandatory parameter unless the
NuGet.Config
file specifies a DefaultPushSource value (see Configuring NuGet behavior).-SkipDuplicate
(5.1+) If a package and version already exists, skip it and continue with the next package in the push, if any. This option is ignored if the package is being pushed to a UNC or local folder source.
-SymbolSource
Specifies the symbol server URL.
-SymbolApiKey
(3.5+) Specifies the API key for the URL specified in
-SymbolSource
.-Timeout
Specifies the timeout, in seconds, for pushing to a server. The default is 300 seconds (5 minutes).
-Verbosity [normal|quiet|detailed]
Specifies the amount of detail displayed in the output:
normal
(the default),quiet
, ordetailed
.

Examples
nuget push foo.nupkg
nuget push foo.symbols.nupkg
nuget push foo.nupkg -Timeout 360
nuget push *.nupkg
nuget.exe push -source \\mycompany\repo\ mypackage.1.0.0.nupkg
nuget push foo.nupkg 4003d786-cc37-4004-bfdf-c4f3e8ef9b3a -Source https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json
nuget push foo.nupkg 4003d786-cc37-4004-bfdf-c4f3e8ef9b3a
nuget push foo.nupkg 4003d786-cc37-4004-bfdf-c4f3e8ef9b3a -src https://customsource/
:: In the example below -SkipDuplicate will skip pushing the package if package "Foo" version "5.0.2" already exists on NuGet.org
nuget push Foo.5.0.2.nupkg 4003d786-cc37-4004-bfdf-c4f3e8ef9b3a -src https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json -SkipDuplicate
