Where are Jenkins artifacts located?

Question

I added the Archive Artifacts post-build option to my project. I can see the artifacts from the web browser interface, but I cannot find them in the filesystem.

Where are they located?

Answer 1

Path is : $JENKINS_HOME/jobs//jobs//branches//builds/$BUILD_NUMBER/archive/

You have to extract branch name, job name and repository name from JOB_NAME environment variable.

Answer 2

Just another couple of tips...

You can find jenkins home by going to the environment variables page in the job build jenkins page.

In my case JENKINS_HOME turned out to be /var/lib/jenkins

Found artifacts in:

/var/lib/jenkins/jobs/<my-job-name>-build/lastStable/archive/target

/var/lib/jenkins/jobs/<my-job-name>-build/lastSsuccessful/archive/target

as well as

/var/lib/jenkins/jobs/<my-job-name>-build/builds/8/archive/target

Answer 3

It is being archived on the master server (even if the build were on a slave) in the following folder:

$JENKINS_HOME/jobs/<job>/builds/<build>/archive

But you can configure a different location using the 'Advanced' setting of the job (where you can set a different workspace folder) or using plugins that are made for this purpose such as Copy Artifact Plugin
