title: Deploying plugins with Gradle
---
Once you have configured Gradle support in your plugin, you can automatically build and deploy your plugin to the JetBrains [plugin repository](http://plugins.jetbrains.com). To do so at this time, you will need to have already published plugin page.
### Add your account credentials
In order to publish a plugin on the plugin repository, you will first need to supply your JetBrains account credentials to the plugin repository. These are typically stored in the [Gradle properties](https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/build_environment.html#sec:gradle_configuration_properties). It is crucial that you do not check these credentials into source control.
Place the following information in a file called `gradle.properties` under your project's root directory, or inside `GRADLE_HOME/gradle.properties`.
```
intellij.publish.username="YOUR_USERNAME_HERE"
intellij.publish.password="YOUR_PASSWORD_HERE"
```
### Add your plugin ID
Inside the `intellij { ... }` portion of your Gradle buildscript, add the following snippet:
```groovy
publish {
pluginId 'YOUR_PLUGIN_ID'
apply from: "gradle.properties"
}
```
Your pluginId can be found in your plugin's URL, ie. https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/YOUR_PLUGIN_ID.
### Deploy your plugin
To deploy a new version of your plugin to the JetBrains plugin repository, execute the following Gradle command:
```bash
gradle publishPlugin
```
Now check your plugin URL to verify the plugin has been updated.
