How to sync from Bintray to Maven Central without knowing Maven

Question

I recently started working as a developer and I need to sync a repo from bintray to maven central . I have never used Maven or the mvn command line utility ever - I started as a Scala sbt developer.

I was told to follow these instructions but I cannot because I don't know Maven or Gradle or Nexus or any of these other things - all I know is sbt bintray .

"In the Maven Central tab, all you have to do is enter your Maven Central User token key and User token password"

I have never heard of Maven Central keys or user token passwords, but without any prior knowlege I could use some instructions.

You need to create an account in Sonatype JIRA. Those will be your https://oss.sonatype.org (and Maven Central) username and password . Then you need to create a new issue to set your permissions right. Once done, you'll be able to login with the credentials to https://oss.sonatype.org and get the user token needed for Bintray from the user account management there.
