However, when a workflow run finishes and an artifact is downloaded from either the UI or through the [download api](https://developer.github.com/v3/actions/artifacts/#download-an-artifact), a zip is dynamically created with all the file contents that were uploaded. There is currently no way to download artifacts after a workflow run finishes in a format other than a zip or to download artifact contents individually. One of the consequences of this limitation is that if a zip is uploaded during a workflow run and then downloaded from the UI, there will be a double zip created. - -### Permission Loss - -:exclamation: File permissions are not maintained during artifact upload :exclamation: For example, if you make a file executable using `chmod` and then upload that file, post-download the file is no longer guaranteed to be set as an executable. - -### Case Insensitive Uploads +```yml + - uses: actions/upload-artifact@v4-beta + id: artifact-upload-step + with: + name: my-artifact + path: path/to/artifact/content/ -:exclamation: File uploads are case insensitive :exclamation: If you upload `A.txt` and `a.txt` with the same root path, only a single file will be saved and available during download. + - name: Output artifact ID + run: echo 'Artifact ID is ${{ steps.artifact-upload-step.outputs.artifact-id }}' +``` -### Maintaining file permissions and case sensitive files +### Example output between jobs -If file permissions and case sensitivity are required, you can `tar` all of your files together before artifact upload.

Here's a screenshot of something you might see: -### Too many uploads resulting in 429 responses + -A very minute subset of users who upload a very very large amount of artifacts in a short period of time may see their uploads throttled or fail because of `Request was blocked due to exceeding usage of resource 'DBCPU' in namespace` or `Unable to copy file to server StatusCode=TooManyRequests`. +There is a trashcan icon that can be used to delete the artifact. This icon will only appear for users who have write permissions to the repository. -To reduce the chance of this happening, you can reduce the number of HTTP calls made during artifact upload by zipping or archiving the contents of your artifact before an upload starts. As an example, imagine an artifact with 1000 files (each 10 Kb in size). Without any modification, there would be around 1000 HTTP calls made to upload the artifact. If you zip or archive the artifact beforehand, the number of HTTP calls can be dropped to single digit territory. Measures like this will significantly speed up your upload and prevent uploads from being throttled or in some cases fail. +The size of the artifact is denoted in bytes.
