Container Registry

Container Registry (SCR) stores and distributes private OCI images within a Project. It gives Build outputs and other container images a named location that authorized tools can push to or pull from.

Why use Container Registry?

Build systems and runtimes need to exchange the same image. A registry provides that handoff, while image digests let a consumer select exact content and tags provide names that can move as you publish updates.

What you can do

  • Configure Docker to authenticate with your current Account session.
  • Push and pull images through the OCI Distribution interface.
  • Inspect repositories, image manifests, and tags through the API or CLI.
  • Supply private images to Run and Sandbox within the Project.

Core concepts

A Repository is a named image collection, created on the first authorized push. An Image is an immutable manifest, index, or artifact identified by its digest. A Tag is a mutable name pointing to one Image.

References include the Account, Project, and repository. Use a digest when the consumer must run an exact image. Registry access requires authorization; images are private.
