A plan's artifacts are any reports, websites or files (e.g. JAR files) which you wish to keep after each build. Artifacts are copied to a subdirectory (/PLAN_KEY/download_data/) under your 'Build Directory' folder (see Locating Important Directories and Files). Artifacts which you define in the plan are listed in each build result as User-defined artifacts (see Viewing a Build's Artifacts in the Bamboo User's Guide).
To specify a plan's build artifacts,
If you are creating a new plan, start at step 5.
- Click 'Home' to go to the Dashboard.
- Click the 'All Plans' tab.
- Locate the plan in the list and click this icon:

- The 'Configuration' tab will be displayed. Click the 'Build Artifacts' sub-tab.
- The 'Build Artifacts' tab will be displayed (see screenshot below).
- In the 'Artifact Label' field, specify the name which Bamboo will use to describe the artifact.
- In the 'Artifact Copy Pattern' field, specify the name (or Ant file copy pattern) of the artifact(s) you want to keep.
Note: The artifact copy pattern is relative to the source directory specified.
- In the 'Source Directory' field, specify the directory (including path) where Bamboo will look for your artifact.
Note: The source directory is relative to the build directory, do not use absolute path to refer to the 'source directory'
- Click the 'Save' button if you are editing an existing plan; or if you are creating a new plan, click the 'Next' button and go to Specifying a Plan's Notifications.
For example, if you want to keep the latest version of a JAR you have built, you could specify
Artifact Copy Pattern to be '*
/.jar' and the
Source Directory to be 'target'.
