v8 - What's new

Direct downloads

To support direct uploads in actions/upload-artifact, the action will no longer attempt to unzip all downloaded files. Instead, the action checks the Content-Type header ahead of unzipping and skips non-zipped files. Callers wishing to download a zipped file as-is can also set the new skip-decompress parameter to false.

Enforced checks (breaking)

A previous release introduced digest checks on the download. If a download hash didn't match the expected hash from the server, the action would log a warning. Callers can now configure the behavior on mismatch with the digest-mismatch parameter. To be secure by default, we are now defaulting the behavior to error which will fail the workflow run.

ESM

To support new versions of the @​actions/* packages, we've upgraded the package to ESM.

What's Changed

• Don't attempt to un-zip non-zipped downloads by @​danwkennedy in #​460
• Add a setting to specify what to do on hash mismatch and default it to error by @​danwkennedy in #​461

v7 - What's new

[!IMPORTANT]
actions/download-artifact@​v7 now runs on Node.js 24 (runs.using: node24) and requires a minimum Actions Runner version of 2.327.1. If you are using self-hosted runners, ensure they are updated before upgrading.

Node.js 24

This release updates the runtime to Node.js 24. v6 had preliminary support for Node 24, however this action was by default still running on Node.js 20. Now this action by default will run on Node.js 24.

What's Changed

• Update GHES guidance to include reference to Node 20 version by @​patrikpolyak in #​440
• Download Artifact Node24 support by @​salmanmkc in #​415
• fix: update @​actions/artifact to fix Node.js 24 punycode deprecation by @​salmanmkc in #​451
• prepare release v7.0.0 for Node.js 24 support by @​salmanmkc in #​452

• @​patrikpolyak made their first contribution in #​440

v7.0.0

Compare Source

v7 What's new

Direct Uploads

Adds support for uploading single files directly (unzipped). Callers can set the new archive parameter to false to skip zipping the file during upload. Right now, we only support single files. The action will fail if the glob passed resolves to multiple files. The name parameter is also ignored with this setting. Instead, the name of the artifact will be the name of the uploaded file.

ESM

To support new versions of the @actions/* packages, we've upgraded the package to ESM.

What's Changed

• Add proxy integration test by @​Link- in #​754
• Upgrade the module to ESM and bump dependencies by @​danwkennedy in #​762
• Support direct file uploads by @​danwkennedy in #​764

Notice: Breaking Changes ⚠️

We will no longer include hidden files and folders by default in the upload-artifact action of this version. This reduces the risk that credentials are accidentally uploaded into artifacts. Customers who need to continue to upload these files can use a new option, include-hidden-files, to continue to do so.

See "Notice of upcoming deprecations and breaking changes in GitHub Actions runners" changelog and this issue for more details.
