Error: Could not get unknown property 'premiumRepoUser' for root project

We are using JMIX Plugin 2.8.0-261 in intelliJ IDEA 2026.1 Build #IU-261.22158.277
We have the license key to use the premium addons and have this in build.gradle
credentials {
username = rootProject[‘premiumRepoUser’]
password = rootProject[‘premiumRepoPass’]
}

Few of us are getting the below error while trying to run the project:
Could not get unknown property ‘premiumRepoUser’ for root project

  • I have read similar issues and their solutions (providing premiumRepoUser/premiumRepoPass in the gradle.properties file). However since we are using a license key, does the same solution work for us? If yes, what will be the user and pass?
  • I have tried deleting .gradle folder and restarting intelliJ
  • It is important to note that this project works on one developer’s laptop. After this issue happened, a previously working JMIX project also started having the same issue.

Curious as to what the issue could be.

Hello @michael.fernando1,

You need to specify premiumRepoUser and premiumRepoPass in ~/.gradle/gradle.properties. Your license key is suitable for this.

The key looks like this: 123456123456-abcdefabcdef,

where the first part (123456123456) is premiumRepoUser, and the second part (abcdefabcdef) is premiumRepoPass.

Additionally, please send us the first part of your key at info@jmix.io, we will check if you have access to paid add-ons.
