GitLab CI/CD artifacts reports types (FREE)

Use artifacts:reports to:

• Collect test reports, code quality reports, security reports, and other artifacts generated by included templates in jobs.
• Some of these reports are used to display information in:
  • Merge requests.
  • Pipeline views.
  • Security dashboards.

Artifacts created for artifacts: reports are always uploaded, regardless of the job results (success or failure). You can use artifacts:expire_in to set an expiration date for the artifacts.

Some artifacts:reports types can be generated by multiple jobs in the same pipeline, and used by merge request or pipeline features from each job.

To browse the report output files, ensure you include the artifacts:paths keyword in your job definition.

NOTE: Combined reports in parent pipelines using artifacts from child pipelines is not supported. Track progress on adding support in this issue.

• A filename pattern (cyclonedx: gl-sbom-*.json, junit: test-results/**/*.json).
• An array of filenames (cyclonedx: [gl-sbom-npm-npm.cdx.json, gl-sbom-bundler-gem.cdx.json]).
• A combination of both (cyclonedx: [gl-sbom-*.json, my-cyclonedx.json]).
• Directories are not supported(cyclonedx: test-results, cyclonedx: test-results/**).

Below is an example of a job exposing CycloneDX artifacts:

artifacts:
  reports:
    cyclonedx:
      - gl-sbom-npm-npm.cdx.json
      - gl-sbom-bundler-gem.cdx.json

If duplicate environment variables are present in a dotenv report:

• In GitLab 14.6 and later, the last one specified is used.
• In GitLab 14.5 and earlier, an error occurs.

The exceptions to the original dotenv rules are:

• The variable key can contain only letters, digits, and underscores (_).
• The maximum size of the .env file is 5 KB. This limit can be changed on self-managed instances.
• On GitLab.com, the maximum number of inherited variables is 50 for Free, 100 for Premium and 150 for Ultimate. The default for self-managed instances is 150, and can be changed by changing the dotenv_variables application limit.
