    Hi Ricky, 

    You must use the new Maven api key now that you've changed your password. You should update this value by opening the settings.xml file found in your folder /users/user/.m2/settings.xml

    Hi Danny,

    Thank you for your reply.

    I refreshed and updated the maven key in settings.xml but no success.

    The default password I changed is located at "">myorg.appiancloud.com/.../platform" under "Tools configuration" Section.

    and as per the below documentation, I should not be changing it.

    https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/20.4/rpa-7.4/console/settings.html

    The fields are populated with default information. Do not change these settings.

    • Default repository username: If you change this value, Appian RPA won't be able to authenticate with Maven and robotic process executions will fail. Don't change this value.
    • Default repository password: The default password listed here is auto-rotated when the Appian RPA Console is opened. If you change this value, it won't auto-update and will be unable to authenticate. Appian RPA won't be able to connect to Maven and robotic process executions will fail. Don't change this value.

    Thank you,

    Ricky

    You should not mess with those settings. I recommend removing any value in the password field and setting the repository to console repo
