Where does the upload go? about upload-artifact HOT 22 CLOSED

This is so cool, but I do have a related question. How do you access the artifact programmatically? I can't see it as part of the check-run. I have another action where I would like to access the artifact from a specific run based on the git sha. The reason be is that we are using chat ops, so we want to build it on check-in, and then access the artifact when we say that we want to deploy a specific branch.

Is there a way to get Artifact URL from a program? Or are you planning to publish the API?

from upload-artifact.

In the top right corner of a workflow run, once the run is over, if you used this action, there will be a Artifacts dropdown which you can download items from. Here's a screenshot of what it looks like

Seems like it doesn't work to download between workflows :(, so back at square 1.

thanks @warrenbuckley

@os6sense, haven't seen that. Does that works between different workflows? Have to try I guess.

@mastoj we don't support download artifact from a different check-run yet, it's on our backlog.

it's uploaded to GitHub server as @lannonbr point out in the screenshot

@TingluoHuang maybe you can answer ⬆️ ?

What I've done so far is GET on the check-suites but that doesn't give me any information on where the artifacts are.

@mastoj I'm assuming we use the associated https://github.com/actions/download-artifact project but it would be nice to have more detail :)

Can I suggest the readme.md is updated with this info as its a bit sparse, as I had no clue what this done or what or where the file was going to upload to please :)

@warrenbuckley we accept PR. 😄

@TingluoHuang here you go - #4 😄

i am testing this here https://github.com/Girchi/girchi-com-frontend/commit/3339c23fec76fc62aa8baf7618d6264eade05ccb/checks

it seems to have uploaded successfully but i don't see download link anywhere...

this is what i see:

from upload-artifact.

I was confused by this as well. Looks like it only shows on this view for some reason: https://github.com/Girchi/girchi-com-frontend/pull/2/checks

I'm uploading on a Release trigger (not a PR) so I'm not able to see the uploads as far as I can tell. It would be AWESOME if the uploads when directly onto the release that triggered the action.

Unfortunately, I can't seem to find the "Artifacts" dropdown, no matter which view I access the check run from.

EDIT: Looks like we're running into this bug: https://github.community/t5/GitHub-Actions/Passing-builds-not-completing/m-p/34968

👋 Hi all, sorry for the lack of response to this issue.

Where does the upload go to?

As answered above, artifacts will appear in the top-right when looking at a workflow run. Note that a run must be completed before artifacts show up.

How do you access the artifact programmatically?

Is there a way to get Artifact URL from a program? Or are you planning to publish the API?

You can access artifacts via the Actions API, see https://developer.github.com/v3/actions/artifacts/
Just note that the download URL will be short-lived (~a few minutes at most) and allow anonymous access for that time period.

Please let me know if there are any more questions.

from upload-artifact.

@joshmgross would it be possible to make that url available to subsequent actions somehow?

from upload-artifact.

@ZacSweers That's actions/download-artifact#3

from upload-artifact.

@teohhanhui I don't see any actual answers in that thread. It seems like starting with having some sort of accessible reference to the previously uploaded artifact on this action would be a good start.

from upload-artifact.

@ZacSweers I believe @teohhanhui meant that actions/download-artifact#3 is tracking that feature.

Going to close out this issue, please open issues if you have any further questions (this will make it easier for others to find those questions and answers)
