@Since 11.2.0.0 This operation retrieves an artifact from Nexus Repository Manager using Maven GAV coordinates (Group ID, Artifact ID, and Version) via a Nexus Account, and stores it in the FlexDeploy artifact repository for use in a FlexDeploy workflow. Unlike retrieveArtifact2, 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.
