Action Summary

The @actions/upload-artifact GitHub Action automates the process of uploading files or directories, referred to as artifacts, from workflow runs to be stored and shared within a GitHub Actions workflow. It addresses the need for efficient artifact management, enabling faster uploads, immediate availability of artifacts in the UI and API, and improved performance in large or complex workflows. The action also supports features such as compression, retention policies, and the ability to handle multiple or wildcard file paths for flexible artifact handling.

Release notes

v7 What’s new

Direct Uploads

Adds support for uploading single files directly (unzipped). Callers can set the new archive parameter to false to skip zipping the file during upload. Right now, we only support single files. The action will fail if the glob passed resolves to multiple files. The name parameter is also ignored with this setting. Instead, the name of the artifact will be the name of the uploaded file.

ESM

To support new versions of the @actions/* packages, we’ve upgraded the package to ESM.
