###Problems issues:
I tried this plugin on 2.11.2-06 and noticed PUT with an array did not work. It would copy the frist artifact but I would get a HTTP 500 Internal Server error and the nexus error log said "Caused by: java.nio.file.NoSuchFileException: "Storage directory"/"target repository"/.nexus/tmp/"gav". Therefore, I switched to running the request in a loop.
I did not find this issue with 2.12.0-01. I was able to successfully run a PUT with an array.
