@x80486 Try project.property("artUser").

For example:

gradle.properties

artUser=john

build.gradle.kts

val sayUser by tasks.creating {
    doLast {
        println(project.property("artUser")) // john
    }
}

You nailed it! That did the trick! Thanks!

In my case I had to do: username = project.property("artUser") as String since that along returns Any?
