How to publish the Jar file into jfrog as a new version instead of deleting/overwriting the pervious one - spring-boot

Question

I am trying to publish the jar file into jfrog. At first it works fine. But when I tried to deploy an artifact under the same path more than once, changing the application version as 2.0.0(before it was 1.0.0), it gives me this error.
"message" : "Not enough permissions to delete/overwrite artifact 'customer-service:customer-service/com/customer/service/core/1.0.0/customer_ervice_core-1.0.0.jar' (user: 'username' needs DELETE permission)."
This is how my build.gradle file looks like.
import org.springframework.boot.gradle.plugin.SpringBootPlugin
buildscript {
repositories {
jcenter()
}
dependencies {
//Check for the latest version here: http://plugins.gradle.org/plugin/com.jfrog.artifactory
classpath "org.jfrog.buildinfo:build-info-extractor-gradle:4+"
}
}
plugins {
id 'org.springframework.boot' version '2.7.5' apply false
id 'io.spring.dependency-management' version '1.0.15.RELEASE'
id 'java'
id 'maven-publish'
id 'com.jfrog.artifactory' version '4.28.1'
}
allprojects {
apply plugin: 'com.jfrog.artifactory'
apply plugin: 'maven-publish'
}
publishing {
publications {
mavenJava(MavenPublication) {
artifactId = 'customer_service_core'
from components.java
pom {
name = 'Customer service core module'
description = 'Customer service core module'
}
}
}
}
artifactory {
contextUrl = "${artifactory_contextUrl}"
jar {
enabled = true
}
publish {
repository {
repoKey = 'customer-service'
username = "${artifactory_user}"
password = "${artifactory_password}"
maven = true
}
defaults {
// Reference to Gradle publications defined in the build script.
// This is how we tell the Artifactory Plugin which artifacts should be
// published to Artifactory.
publications('mavenJava')
publishArtifacts = true
// Properties to be attached to the published artifacts.
properties = ['qa.level': 'basic', 'dev.team': 'core']
// Publish generated POM files to Artifactory (true by default)
publishPom = true
}
}
}
group = 'com.customer.service'
version = '2.0.0'
sourceCompatibility = '17'
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencyManagement {
imports {
mavenBom SpringBootPlugin.BOM_COORDINATES
}
}
dependencies {
implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter'
testImplementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test'
// lombok dependencies
compileOnly 'org.projectlombok:lombok'
annotationProcessor 'org.projectlombok:lombok'
}
tasks.named('test') {
useJUnitPlatform()
}
I want to know is there any way to deploy our jar files as a new version without overwriting the pervious one? Do I always need to include a version number manually in the path to be deployed, if so how can I do it though this build.gradle file?

I think snapshot Repo maybe the solution and you can save many different versions as you like.
