EULA REST API

Component downloads and uploads are blocked until a Nexus Administrator has agreed to the terms in the Sonatype Nexus Repository Community Edition end-user license agreement (EULA).

See Sonatype Nexus Repository Community Edtion EULA for the complete text.

To agree to the EULA, submit a POST request with the exact text from the disclaimer received from the GET request from the same endpoint while updating the accepted property to true.
