Research direction

Start by reproducing the app build with MAPBOX_DOWNLOADS_TOKEN and inspect how the Android project supplies that token for the Mapbox Maven dependency. Done means the dependency download no longer returns HTTP 403 and the app builds successfully.

Description

Hi,

I just cloned the repo today and I have the right access token for MAPBOX_DOWNLOADS_TOKEN and got the forbidden error when trying to run the app:

Could not GET 'https://api.mapbox.com/downloads/v2/snapshots/maven/com/mapbox/navigationcore/ev-ndk27/3.26.0/ev-ndk27-3.26.0.pom'. Received status code 403 from server: Forbidden
