Where does the upload go?

Where does the upload go to? Is there any meta information returned on success/failure? Can we control where the artifact is uploaded?

Sorry silly questions but the readme is a little on the slim side :)

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

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

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.

@TingluoHuang maybe you can answer ⬆️ ?

[mastoj]

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.

[os6sense]

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

[mastoj]

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

[mastoj]

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

[TingluoHuang]

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

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 :)

[TingluoHuang]

@warrenbuckley we accept PR. 😄

[warrenbuckley]

@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:

[gschier]

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.
