Thank you for opening the PR and trying to help us 🙏

I created the v0.11.3 release on this branch, unfortunately, this is still failing:

Unfortunately I can't really help with this...

But I found some issues that may help:

• No staging repositories found for stagingProfileId gradle-nexus/publish-plugin#211
• No staging repository with name sonatype created gradle-nexus/publish-plugin#217

Could be you need to configure something in Sonatype directly? Or are there other secrets that could be used?

Have a look at the Background-Tasks of the new plugin, maybe this helps.

https://github.com/gradle-nexus/publish-plugin/#behind-the-scenes
See second point:

creates a retrieve{repository.name.capitalize()}StagingProfile task that retrieves the staging profile id from the remote Nexus repository. This is a diagnostic task to enable setting the configuration property stagingProfileId in nexusPublishing { repositories { myRepository { ... } } }. Specifying the configuration property rather than relying on the API call is considered a performance optimization.

Specify the 'stagingProfileId' if your nexus won't return it on request as explained above (or adapt the nexus config)

I agree with @KaaNee. Only someone with Nexus/Sonatype access can fix this issue.

Thank you so much for this PR @axelrindle and for your help @KaaNee 😊

I took the liberty of modifying your PR, I think I've found a solution, probably not the cleanest, but it works if the two tasks are in the same command.
You can check the successful deployment here 🎉
