Relative and absolute file paths are both allowed. Relative paths are rooted against the current working directory.
The [@actions/artifact](https://github.com/actions/toolkit/tree/master/packages/artifact) package is also used internally to handle most of the logic around uploading an artifact. There is extra documentation around upload limitations and behavior in the toolkit repo that is worth checking out.
### Conditional Artifact Upload
To upload artifacts only when the previous step of a job failed, use [`if: failure()`](https://help.github.com/en/articles/contexts-and-expression-syntax-for-github-actions#job-status-check-functions):

With the following example, the available artifact (named `artifact`) would contain both `world.txt` (`hello`) and `extra-file.txt` (`howdy`).
With the following example, the available artifact (named `artifact` which is the default if no name is provided) would contain both `world.txt` (`hello`) and `extra-file.txt` (`howdy`).
### Environment Variables and Tilde Expansion
You can use `~` in the path input as a substitute for `$HOME`. Basic tilde expansion is supported.
```yaml
- run: |
mkdir -p ~/new/artifact
echo hello > ~/new/artifact/world.txt
- uses: actions/upload-artifact@v2-preview
with:
name: 'Artifacts-V2'
path: '~/new/**/*'
```
Environment variables along with context expressions can also be used for input. For documentation see [context and expression syntax](https://help.github.com/en/actions/reference/context-and-expression-syntax-for-github-actions).
```yaml
env:
name: my-artifact
steps:
- run: |
mkdir -p ${{ github.workspace }}/artifact
echo hello > ${{ github.workspace }}/artifact/world.txt
- uses: actions/upload-artifact@v2-preview
with:
name: ${{ env.name }}-name
path: ${{ github.workspace }}/artifact/**/*
```
