# retrieveArtifactGAV (Nexus)

@Since 11.2.0.0

This operation retrieves an artifact from Nexus Repository Manager using Maven GAV coordinates (Group ID, Artifact ID, and Version) and stores it in the FlexDeploy artifact repository for use in a FlexDeploy workflow. Unlike retrieveArtifact, you do not need to supply a full remote path; FlexDeploy builds the standard Maven repository path under the selected repository.

The downloaded file name is `\{artifactId\}-\{version\}[-classifier].\{packaging\}` using the literal version string (including `-SNAPSHOT`). Nexus may resolve SNAPSHOT via metadata on GET; for a unique timestamped snapshot, pass that version string.
