# Upload-Artifact v3 # Upload-Artifact v4 beta
❗ Not publicly available. If you try to use this version then it will fail. Available only internally at GitHub while in development. Stay tuned for public announcements soon about broader availability❗
This uploads artifacts from your workflow allowing you to share data between jobs and store data once a workflow is complete. This uploads artifacts from your workflow allowing you to share data between jobs and store data once a workflow is complete.

### Uploading to the same artifact ### Uploading to the same artifact
With the following example, the available artifact (named `artifact` by default if no name is provided) would contain both `world.txt` (`hello`) and `extra-file.txt` (`howdy`): Unlike earlier versions of `upload-artifact`, uploading to the same artifact via multiple jobs is _not_ supported with `v4`.
```yaml ```yaml
- run: echo hi > world.txt - run: echo hi > world.txt
- uses: actions/upload-artifact@v3 - uses: actions/upload-artifact@v4-beta
with: with:
path: world.txt path: world.txt
- run: echo howdy > extra-file.txt - run: echo howdy > extra-file.txt
- uses: actions/upload-artifact@v3 - uses: actions/upload-artifact@v4-beta
with: with:
path: extra-file.txt path: extra-file.txt
- run: echo hello > world.txt
- uses: actions/upload-artifact@v3
with:
path: world.txt
``` ```
Each artifact behaves as a file share. Uploading to the same artifact multiple times in the same workflow can overwrite and append already uploaded files: Artifact names must be unique since each created artifact is idempotent so multiple jobs cannot modify the same artifact.
```yaml
strategy:
matrix:
node-version: [8.x, 10.x, 12.x, 13.x]
steps:
- name: Create a file
run: echo ${{ matrix.node-version }} > my_file.txt
- name: Accidentally upload to the same artifact via multiple jobs
uses: actions/upload-artifact@v3
with:
name: my-artifact
path: ${{ github.workspace }}
```
> **_Warning:_** Be careful when uploading to the same artifact via multiple jobs as artifacts may become corrupted. When uploading a file with an identical name and path in multiple jobs, uploads may fail with 503 errors due to conflicting uploads happening at the same time. Ensure uploads to identical locations to not interfere with each other.
In the above example, four jobs will upload four different files to the same artifact but there will only be one file available when `my-artifact` is downloaded. Each job overwrites what was previously uploaded. To ensure that jobs don't overwrite existing artifacts, use a different name per job:
```yaml
uses: actions/upload-artifact@v3
with:
name: my-artifact ${{ matrix.node-version }}
path: ${{ github.workspace }}

## Outputs
If an artifact upload is successful then an `artifact-id` output is available. This ID is a unique identifier that can be used with [Artifact REST APIs](https://docs.github.com/en/rest/actions/artifacts).
### Example output between steps
```yml
- uses: actions/upload-artifact@v4-beta
id: artifact-upload-step
with:
name: my-artifact
path: path/to/artifact/content/
- name: Output artifact ID
run: echo 'Artifact ID is ${{ steps.artifact-upload-step.outputs.artifact-id }}'
```
### Example output between jobs
```yml
jobs:
job1:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
outputs:
output1: ${{ steps.my-artifact.outputs.artifact-id }}
steps:
- uses: actions/upload-artifact@v4-beta

The size of the artifact is denoted in bytes. The displayed artifact size denotes the raw uploaded artifact size (the sum of all the individual files uploaded during the workflow run for the artifact), not the compressed size. When you click to download an artifact from the summary page, a compressed zip is created with all the contents of the artifact and the size of the zip that you download may differ significantly from the displayed size. Billing is based on the raw uploaded size and not the size of the zip. The size of the artifact is denoted in bytes. The displayed artifact size denotes the size of the zip that `upload-artifact` creates during upload.
# Limitations
### Zipped Artifact Downloads
During a workflow run, files are uploaded and downloaded individually using the `upload-artifact` and `download-artifact` actions. 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
: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.
### Maintaining file permissions and case sensitive files
If file permissions and case sensitivity are required, you can `tar` all of your files together before artifact upload. Post download, the `tar` file will maintain file permissions and case sensitivity:
```yaml
- name: Tar files
run: tar -cvf my_files.tar /path/to/my/directory
- name: Upload Artifact
uses: actions/upload-artifact@v3
with:
name: my-artifact
path: my_files.tar
```
### 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`.
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.
