The [@actions/artifact](https://github.com/actions/toolkit/tree/master/packages/artifact) package is also used internally to handle most of the logic around uploading an artifact. There is extra documentation around upload limitations and behavior in the toolkit repo that is worth checking out.

### Conditional Artifact Upload
|
||||
|
||||
To upload artifacts only when the previous step of a job failed, use [`if: failure()`](https://help.github.com/en/articles/contexts-and-expression-syntax-for-github-actions#job-status-check-functions):

### Environment Variables and Tilde Expansion
|
||||
|
||||
You can use `~` in the path input as a substitute for `$HOME`. Basic tilde expansion is supported.
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
- run: |
|
||||
mkdir -p ~/new/artifact
|
||||
echo hello > ~/new/artifact/world.txt
|
||||
- uses: actions/upload-artifact@v2-preview
|
||||
with:
|
||||
name: 'Artifacts-V2'
|
||||
path: '~/new/**/*'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Environment variables along with context expressions can also be used for input. For documentation see [context and expression syntax](https://help.github.com/en/actions/reference/context-and-expression-syntax-for-github-actions).
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
env:
|
||||
name: my-artifact
|
||||
steps:
|
||||
- run: |
|
||||
mkdir -p ${{ github.workspace }}/artifact
|
||||
echo hello > ${{ github.workspace }}/artifact/world.txt
|

- uses: actions/upload-artifact@v2-preview

## Where does the upload go?
|
||||
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<br/>
