# Jobs artifacts administration **(FREE SELF)**
2017-08-17 22:00:37 +05:30
2022-03-02 08:16:31 +05:30
This is the administration documentation. To learn how to use job artifacts in your GitLab CI/CD pipeline,
see the [job artifacts configuration documentation](../ci/pipelines/job_artifacts.md).
2017-08-17 22:00:37 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
An artifact is a list of files and directories attached to a job after it
finishes. This feature is enabled by default in all GitLab installations.
2017-08-17 22:00:37 +05:30
## Disabling job artifacts
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
To disable artifacts site-wide:
2017-08-17 22:00:37 +05:30
**In Omnibus installations:**
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and add the following line:
2019-09-30 21:07:59 +05:30
```ruby
gitlab_rails['artifacts_enabled'] = false
```
2017-08-17 22:00:37 +05:30
2020-04-22 19:07:51 +05:30
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab](restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure) for the changes to take effect.
2017-08-17 22:00:37 +05:30
**In installations from source:**
1. Edit `/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml` and add or amend the following lines:
2019-09-30 21:07:59 +05:30
```yaml
artifacts:
enabled: false
```
2017-08-17 22:00:37 +05:30
2020-04-22 19:07:51 +05:30
1. Save the file and [restart GitLab](restart_gitlab.md#installations-from-source) for the changes to take effect.
2017-08-17 22:00:37 +05:30
## Storing job artifacts
2019-09-04 21:01:54 +05:30
GitLab Runner can upload an archive containing the job artifacts to GitLab. By default,
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
this is done when the job succeeds, but can also be done on failure, or always, with the
2021-09-30 23:02:18 +05:30
[`artifacts:when`](../ci/yaml/index.md#artifactswhen) parameter.
2017-08-17 22:00:37 +05:30
2020-06-23 00:09:42 +05:30
Most artifacts are compressed by GitLab Runner before being sent to the coordinator. The exception to this is
2021-09-30 23:02:18 +05:30
[reports artifacts](../ci/yaml/index.md#artifactsreports), which are compressed after uploading.
2020-06-23 00:09:42 +05:30
2017-09-10 17:25:29 +05:30
### Using local storage
To change the location where the artifacts are stored locally, follow the steps
below.
2017-08-17 22:00:37 +05:30
**In Omnibus installations:**
_The artifacts are stored by default in
`/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/artifacts`._
1. To change the storage path for example to `/mnt/storage/artifacts`, edit
`/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and add the following line:
2019-09-30 21:07:59 +05:30
```ruby
gitlab_rails['artifacts_path'] = "/mnt/storage/artifacts"
```
2017-08-17 22:00:37 +05:30
2020-04-22 19:07:51 +05:30
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab](restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure) for the changes to take effect.
2017-08-17 22:00:37 +05:30
**In installations from source:**
_The artifacts are stored by default in
`/home/git/gitlab/shared/artifacts`._
1. To change the storage path for example to `/mnt/storage/artifacts`, edit
`/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml` and add or amend the following lines:
2019-09-30 21:07:59 +05:30
```yaml
artifacts:
enabled: true
path: /mnt/storage/artifacts
```
2017-08-17 22:00:37 +05:30
2020-04-22 19:07:51 +05:30
1. Save the file and [restart GitLab](restart_gitlab.md#installations-from-source) for the changes to take effect.
2017-08-17 22:00:37 +05:30
2017-09-10 17:25:29 +05:30
### Using object storage
2018-05-09 12:01:36 +05:30
If you don't want to use the local disk where GitLab is installed to store the
artifacts, you can use an object storage like AWS S3 instead.
This configuration relies on valid AWS credentials to be configured already.
2018-12-13 13:39:08 +05:30
Use an object storage option like AWS S3 to store job artifacts.
2018-05-09 12:01:36 +05:30
2021-01-03 14:25:43 +05:30
If you configure GitLab to store artifacts on object storage, you may also want to
[eliminate local disk usage for job logs](job_logs.md#prevent-local-disk-usage).
In both cases, job logs are archived and moved to object storage when the job completes.
2021-02-22 17:27:13 +05:30
WARNING:
2021-01-03 14:25:43 +05:30
In a multi-server setup you must use one of the options to
[eliminate local disk usage for job logs](job_logs.md#prevent-local-disk-usage), or job logs could be lost.
2020-04-22 19:07:51 +05:30
[Read more about using object storage with GitLab](object_storage.md).
2019-09-04 21:01:54 +05:30
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
#### Object Storage Settings
2018-05-09 12:01:36 +05:30
2021-02-22 17:27:13 +05:30
NOTE:
2020-07-28 23:09:34 +05:30
In GitLab 13.2 and later, we recommend using the
[consolidated object storage settings](object_storage.md#consolidated-object-storage-configuration).
This section describes the earlier configuration format.
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
For source installations the following settings are nested under `artifacts:`
and then `object_store:`. On Omnibus GitLab installs they are prefixed by
`artifacts_object_store_`.
2018-05-09 12:01:36 +05:30
2021-06-08 01:23:25 +05:30
| Setting | Default | Description |
|---------------------|---------|-------------|
| `enabled` | `false` | Enable or disable object storage. |
2021-09-04 01:27:46 +05:30
| `remote_directory` | | The bucket name where Artifacts are stored. Use the name only, do not include the path. |
2021-02-22 17:27:13 +05:30
| `proxy_download` | `false` | Set to `true` to enable proxying all files served. Option allows to reduce egress traffic as this allows clients to download directly from remote storage instead of proxying all data. |
2021-06-08 01:23:25 +05:30
| `connection` | | Various connection options described below. |
2018-05-09 12:01:36 +05:30
2020-07-28 23:09:34 +05:30
#### Connection settings
2018-05-09 12:01:36 +05:30
2020-07-28 23:09:34 +05:30
See [the available connection settings for different providers](object_storage.md#connection-settings).
2018-05-09 12:01:36 +05:30
**In Omnibus installations:**
_The artifacts are stored by default in
`/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/artifacts`._
2020-06-23 00:09:42 +05:30
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and add the following lines, substituting
2018-05-09 12:01:36 +05:30
the values you want:
2019-09-30 21:07:59 +05:30
```ruby
gitlab_rails['artifacts_enabled'] = true
gitlab_rails['artifacts_object_store_enabled'] = true
gitlab_rails['artifacts_object_store_remote_directory'] = "artifacts"
gitlab_rails['artifacts_object_store_connection'] = {
'provider' => 'AWS',
'region' => 'eu-central-1',
'aws_access_key_id' => 'AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID',
'aws_secret_access_key' => 'AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY'
}
```
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
NOTE:
If you're using AWS IAM profiles, omit the AWS access key and secret access
key/value pairs. For example:
2019-09-30 21:07:59 +05:30
```ruby
gitlab_rails['artifacts_object_store_connection'] = {
'provider' => 'AWS',
'region' => 'eu-central-1',
'use_iam_profile' => true
}
```
2018-05-09 12:01:36 +05:30
2020-04-22 19:07:51 +05:30
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab](restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure) for the changes to take effect.
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
1. [Migrate any existing local artifacts to the object storage](#migrating-to-object-storage).
2020-04-08 14:13:33 +05:30
2018-05-09 12:01:36 +05:30
**In installations from source:**
_The artifacts are stored by default in
`/home/git/gitlab/shared/artifacts`._
1. Edit `/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml` and add or amend the following
lines:
2019-09-30 21:07:59 +05:30
```yaml
artifacts:
enabled: true
object_store:
enabled: true
2021-01-03 14:25:43 +05:30
remote_directory: "artifacts" # The bucket name
2019-09-30 21:07:59 +05:30
connection:
2021-01-03 14:25:43 +05:30
provider: AWS # Only AWS supported at the moment
2019-09-30 21:07:59 +05:30
aws_access_key_id: AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
aws_secret_access_key: AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
region: eu-central-1
```
2018-05-09 12:01:36 +05:30
2020-04-22 19:07:51 +05:30
1. Save the file and [restart GitLab](restart_gitlab.md#installations-from-source) for the changes to take effect.
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
1. [Migrate any existing local artifacts to the object storage](#migrating-to-object-storage).
2020-04-08 14:13:33 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
### Migrating to object storage
After [configuring the object storage](#using-object-storage), use the following task to
migrate existing job artifacts from the local storage to the remote storage.
The processing is done in a background worker and requires **no downtime**.
**In Omnibus installations:**
```shell
gitlab-rake gitlab:artifacts:migrate
```
**In installations from source:**
```shell
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:artifacts:migrate RAILS_ENV=production
```
You can optionally track progress and verify that all job artifacts migrated successfully using the
[PostgreSQL console](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/settings/database.html#connecting-to-the-bundled-postgresql-database):
- `sudo gitlab-rails dbconsole` for Omnibus GitLab instances.
- `sudo -u git -H psql -d gitlabhq_production` for source-installed instances.
Verify `objectstg` below (where `store=2`) has count of all job artifacts:
```shell
gitlabhq_production=# SELECT count(*) AS total, sum(case when file_store = '1' then 1 else 0 end) AS filesystem, sum(case when file_store = '2' then 1 else 0 end) AS objectstg FROM ci_job_artifacts;
total | filesystem | objectstg
------+------------+-----------
19 | 0 | 19
```
Verify that there are no files on disk in the `artifacts` folder:
```shell
sudo find /var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/artifacts -type f | grep -v tmp | wc -l
```
In some cases, you need to run the [orphan artifact file cleanup Rake task](../raketasks/cleanup.md#remove-orphan-artifact-files)
to clean up orphaned artifacts.

2020-04-22 19:07:51 +05:30
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
### Migrating from object storage to local storage
2020-04-08 14:13:33 +05:30
**In Omnibus installations:**
2021-01-03 14:25:43 +05:30
To migrate back to local storage:
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
2021-01-03 14:25:43 +05:30
1. Set both `direct_upload` and `background_upload` to `false` in `gitlab.rb`, under the artifacts object storage settings.
2020-04-22 19:07:51 +05:30
1. [Reconfigure GitLab](restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure).
2020-04-08 14:13:33 +05:30
1. Run `gitlab-rake gitlab:artifacts:migrate_to_local`.
1. Disable object_storage for artifacts in `gitlab.rb`:
- Set `gitlab_rails['artifacts_object_store_enabled'] = false`.
- Comment out all other `artifacts_object_store` settings, including the entire
`artifacts_object_store_connection` section, including the closing `}`.
2020-04-22 19:07:51 +05:30
1. [Reconfigure GitLab](restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure).
2019-12-21 20:55:43 +05:30
2017-09-10 17:25:29 +05:30
## Expiring artifacts
2021-09-30 23:02:18 +05:30
If [`artifacts:expire_in`](../ci/yaml/index.md#artifactsexpire_in) is used to set
2020-06-23 00:09:42 +05:30
an expiry for the artifacts, they are marked for deletion right after that date passes.
2021-02-22 17:27:13 +05:30
Otherwise, they expire per the [default artifacts expiration setting](../user/admin_area/settings/continuous_integration.md).
2020-06-23 00:09:42 +05:30
Artifacts are cleaned up by the `expire_build_artifacts_worker` cron job which Sidekiq
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
runs every 7 minutes (`*/7 * * * *`).
2017-09-10 17:25:29 +05:30
To change the default schedule on which the artifacts are expired, follow the
steps below.
**In Omnibus installations:**
2020-06-23 00:09:42 +05:30
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` and add the following line (or uncomment it if it already exists and is commented out), substituting
your schedule in cron syntax:
2017-09-10 17:25:29 +05:30
2019-09-30 21:07:59 +05:30
```ruby
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
gitlab_rails['expire_build_artifacts_worker_cron'] = "*/7 * * * *"
2019-09-30 21:07:59 +05:30
```
2017-09-10 17:25:29 +05:30
2020-04-22 19:07:51 +05:30
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab](restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure) for the changes to take effect.
2017-09-10 17:25:29 +05:30
**In installations from source:**
1. Edit `/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml` and add or amend the following
lines:
2019-09-30 21:07:59 +05:30
```yaml
expire_build_artifacts_worker:
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
cron: "*/7 * * * *"
2019-09-30 21:07:59 +05:30
```
2017-09-10 17:25:29 +05:30
2020-04-22 19:07:51 +05:30
1. Save the file and [restart GitLab](restart_gitlab.md#installations-from-source) for the changes to take effect.
2017-09-10 17:25:29 +05:30
2021-02-22 17:27:13 +05:30
If the `expire` directive is not set explicitly in your pipeline, artifacts expire per the
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
default artifacts expiration setting, which you can find in the [CI/CD Administration settings](../user/admin_area/settings/continuous_integration.md).
2020-06-23 00:09:42 +05:30
2017-08-17 22:00:37 +05:30
## Set the maximum file size of the artifacts
2020-06-23 00:09:42 +05:30
If artifacts are enabled, you can change the maximum file size of the
2020-11-24 15:15:51 +05:30
artifacts through the [Admin Area settings](../user/admin_area/settings/continuous_integration.md#maximum-artifacts-size).
2017-08-17 22:00:37 +05:30
## Storage statistics
You can see the total storage used for job artifacts on groups and projects
in the administration area, as well as through the [groups](../api/groups.md)
and [projects APIs](../api/projects.md).
## Implementation details
When GitLab receives an artifacts archive, an archive metadata file is also
2020-04-22 19:07:51 +05:30
generated by [GitLab Workhorse](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-workhorse). This metadata file describes all the entries
2018-03-17 18:26:18 +05:30
that are located in the artifacts archive itself.
2020-05-24 23:13:21 +05:30
The metadata file is in a binary format, with additional Gzip compression.
2017-08-17 22:00:37 +05:30
2021-01-03 14:25:43 +05:30
GitLab doesn't extract the artifacts archive to save space, memory, and disk
I/O. It instead inspects the metadata file which contains all the relevant
information. This is especially important when there is a lot of artifacts, or
an archive is a very large file.
2017-08-17 22:00:37 +05:30
2020-04-22 19:07:51 +05:30
When clicking on a specific file, [GitLab Workhorse](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-workhorse) extracts it
2017-08-17 22:00:37 +05:30
from the archive and the download begins. This implementation saves space,
memory and disk I/O.
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
## Troubleshooting
### Job artifacts using too much disk space
Job artifacts can fill up your disk space quicker than expected. Some possible
reasons are:
- Users have configured job artifacts expiration to be longer than necessary.
- The number of jobs run, and hence artifacts generated, is higher than expected.
- Job logs are larger than expected, and have accumulated over time.
2021-02-22 17:27:13 +05:30
In these and other cases, identify the projects most responsible
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
for disk space usage, figure out what types of artifacts are using the most
space, and in some cases, manually delete job artifacts to reclaim disk space.
2020-06-23 00:09:42 +05:30
One possible first step is to [clean up _orphaned_ artifact files](../raketasks/cleanup.md#remove-orphan-artifact-files).
2022-05-07 20:08:51 +05:30
#### List projects and builds with artifacts with a specific expiration (or no expiration)
Using a [Rails console](operations/rails_console.md), you can find projects that have job artifacts with either:
- No expiration date.
- An expiration date more than 7 days in the future.
Similar to [deleting artifacts](#delete-job-artifacts-from-jobs-completed-before-a-specific-date), use the following example time frames
and alter them as needed:
- `7.days.from_now`
- `10.days.from_now`
- `2.weeks.from_now`
- `3.months.from_now`
Each of the following scripts also limits the search to 50 results with `.limit(50)`, but this number can also be changed as needed:
```ruby
# Find builds & projects with artifacts that never expire
builds_with_artifacts_that_never_expire = Ci::Build.with_downloadable_artifacts.where(artifacts_expire_at: nil).limit(50)
builds_with_artifacts_that_never_expire.find_each do |build|
puts "Build with id #{build.id} has artifacts that don't expire and belongs to project #{build.project.full_path}"
end
# Find builds & projects with artifacts that expire after 7 days from today
builds_with_artifacts_that_expire_in_a_week = Ci::Build.with_downloadable_artifacts.where('artifacts_expire_at > ?', 7.days.from_now).limit(50)
builds_with_artifacts_that_expire_in_a_week.find_each do |build|
puts "Build with id #{build.id} has artifacts that expire at #{build.artifacts_expire_at} and belongs to project #{build.project.full_path}"
end
```
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
#### List projects by total size of job artifacts stored
List the top 20 projects, sorted by the total size of job artifacts stored, by
running the following code in the Rails console (`sudo gitlab-rails console`):
```ruby
include ActionView::Helpers::NumberHelper
ProjectStatistics.order(build_artifacts_size: :desc).limit(20).each do |s|
puts "#{number_to_human_size(s.build_artifacts_size)} \t #{s.project.full_path}"
end
```
You can change the number of projects listed by modifying `.limit(20)` to the
number you want.
#### List largest artifacts in a single project
List the 50 largest job artifacts in a single project by running the following
code in the Rails console (`sudo gitlab-rails console`):
```ruby
include ActionView::Helpers::NumberHelper
project = Project.find_by_full_path('path/to/project')
Ci::JobArtifact.where(project: project).order(size: :desc).limit(50).map { |a| puts "ID: #{a.id} - #{a.file_type}: #{number_to_human_size(a.size)}" }
```
You can change the number of job artifacts listed by modifying `.limit(50)` to
the number you want.
2021-11-11 11:23:49 +05:30
#### List artifacts in a single project
List the artifacts for a single project, sorted by artifact size. The output includes the:
- ID of the job that created the artifact
- artifact size
- artifact file type
- artifact creation date
- on-disk location of the artifact
```ruby
2021-11-18 22:05:49 +05:30
p = Project.find_by_id(<project_id>)
2021-11-11 11:23:49 +05:30

#### Delete job artifacts from jobs completed before a specific date
2021-02-22 17:27:13 +05:30
WARNING:
2022-04-04 11:22:00 +05:30
These commands remove data permanently from both the database and from disk. Before running them, we highly recommend seeking guidance from a Support Engineer, or running them in a test environment with a backup of the instance ready to be restored, just in case.
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
If you need to manually remove job artifacts associated with multiple jobs while
**retaining their job logs**, this can be done from the Rails console (`sudo gitlab-rails console`):
1. Select jobs to be deleted:
To select all jobs with artifacts for a single project:
```ruby
project = Project.find_by_full_path('path/to/project')
2020-05-24 23:13:21 +05:30
builds_with_artifacts = project.builds.with_downloadable_artifacts
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
```
To select all jobs with artifacts across the entire GitLab instance:
```ruby
2020-05-24 23:13:21 +05:30
builds_with_artifacts = Ci::Build.with_downloadable_artifacts
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
```
1. Delete job artifacts older than a specific date:
2021-02-22 17:27:13 +05:30
NOTE:
This step also erases artifacts that users have chosen to
2021-04-29 21:17:54 +05:30
["keep"](../ci/pipelines/job_artifacts.md#download-job-artifacts).
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
```ruby
builds_to_clear = builds_with_artifacts.where("finished_at < ?", 1.week.ago)
builds_to_clear.find_each do |build|
build.artifacts_expire_at = Time.now
build.erase_erasable_artifacts!
end
```
`1.week.ago` is a Rails `ActiveSupport::Duration` method which calculates a new
date or time in the past. Other valid examples are:
- `7.days.ago`
- `3.months.ago`
- `1.year.ago`
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
`erase_erasable_artifacts!` is a synchronous method, and upon execution the artifacts are immediately removed;
they are not scheduled by a background queue.

If you need to manually remove **all** job artifacts associated with multiple jobs,
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
**including job logs**, this can be done from the Rails console (`sudo gitlab-rails console`):
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
1. Select the jobs to be deleted:
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30

1. Select the user which is mentioned in the web UI as erasing the job:
2020-03-13 15:44:24 +05:30
```ruby
admin_user = User.find_by(username: 'username')
```
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30

if build.erasable?
build.erase(erased_by: admin_user)
puts "Erased"
else
puts "Skipped (Nothing to erase or not erasable)"
end

### Error `Downloading artifacts from coordinator... not found`
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
When a job attempts to download artifacts from an earlier job, you might receive an error message similar to:
2021-04-29 21:17:54 +05:30
```plaintext
Downloading artifacts from coordinator... not found id=12345678 responseStatus=404 Not Found
```
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
This can be caused by a `gitlab.rb` file with the following configuration:
2021-04-29 21:17:54 +05:30
```ruby
gitlab_rails['artifacts_object_store_background_upload'] = false
gitlab_rails['artifacts_object_store_direct_upload'] = true
```
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
To prevent this, comment out or remove those lines, or switch to their [default values](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/omnibus-gitlab/blob/master/files/gitlab-config-template/gitlab.rb.template), and
2021-04-29 21:17:54 +05:30
then run `sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure`.
### Job artifact upload fails with error 500
If you are using object storage for artifacts and a job artifact fails to upload,
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
review:
2021-04-29 21:17:54 +05:30
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
- The job log for an error message similar to:
2021-04-29 21:17:54 +05:30
```plaintext
WARNING: Uploading artifacts as "archive" to coordinator... failed id=12345 responseStatus=500 Internal Server Error status=500 token=abcd1234
```
2022-01-26 12:08:38 +05:30
- The [workhorse log](logs.md#workhorse-logs) for an error message similar to:
2021-04-29 21:17:54 +05:30
```json
{"error":"MissingRegion: could not find region configuration","level":"error","msg":"error uploading S3 session","time":"2021-03-16T22:10:55-04:00"}
```
In both cases, you might need to add `region` to the job artifact [object storage configuration](#connection-settings).
2022-05-07 20:08:51 +05:30
### Job artifact upload fails with `500 Internal Server Error (Missing file)`
Bucket names that include folder paths are not supported with [consolidated object storage](object_storage.md#consolidated-object-storage-configuration).
For example, `bucket/path`. If a bucket name has a path in it, you might receive an error similar to:
```plaintext
2022-07-16 23:28:13 +05:30
WARNING: Uploading artifacts as "archive" to coordinator... POST https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/jobs/job_id/artifacts?artifact_format=zip&artifact_type=archive&expire_in=1+day: 500 Internal Server Error (Missing file)
2022-05-07 20:08:51 +05:30
FATAL: invalid argument
```
2022-06-21 17:19:12 +05:30
If a job artifact fails to upload with the above error when using consolidated object storage, make sure you are [using separate buckets](object_storage.md#use-separate-buckets) for each data type.
