error while trying to push nuget package from VSTS

Question

I added dotnet task (.Net Core) to do a nuget push. In the Nuget server section it asked me to use create a new Nuget Connection. I went with the API Key option and game in connection name,Feed URL, and API Key.

when I run this step I get the following error

Error: DotNetCore currently does not support using an encrypted Api Key.

is this a limitation or am i doing something wrong?

Please note from my desktop I am about to create package and push the package using apikey.

Do you use private build agent? Is it your desktop machine? What's the version of dotnet core? — starian chen-MSFT, Mar 20 '18 at 07:56
I have tried it on both 'Hosted VS2017' and also in the private build agent the same error. I am using .net core 2 — kumar, Mar 20 '18 at 08:51
Try to call dotnet nuget push command through Command Line task and check the result. — starian chen-MSFT, Mar 20 '18 at 08:52
I have tried dotnet nuget push from command line from my desktop and it works. — kumar, Mar 20 '18 at 10:16
Try to do it through Command Line task (Add Command Line task to build definition). — starian chen-MSFT, Mar 21 '18 at 01:48
That is what I did to get it working for now. but I think that dotnet task for push is not working. — kumar, Mar 21 '18 at 09:18
You can submit the issue here https://github.com/Microsoft/vsts-tasks/issues. On the other hand, you can build a custom build task through vsts extension. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/vsts/extend/develop/add-build-task?view=vsts — starian chen-MSFT, Mar 22 '18 at 01:06

I faced this issue and found a alternative way for this.

Instead of using dotnet nuget push use nuget push.

Yeap, using nuget task instead of dotnet push works as expected. Using API key as it should be. – Juan Carlos May 13 '19 at 21:28

Pushing package to NuGet server through Command Line task by calling dotnet nuget push command to deal with this issue.
