BREAKING fix: inconsistent path behavior for single artifact downloads by ID by @GrantBirki in https://github.com/actions/download-artifact/pull/416

v5.0.0

🚨 Breaking Change

This release fixes an inconsistency in path behavior for single artifact downloads by ID. If you're downloading single artifacts by ID, the output path may change.

What Changed

Previously, single artifact downloads behaved differently depending on how you specified the artifact:

By name: name: my-artifact → extracted to path/ (direct)
By ID: artifact-ids: 12345 → extracted to path/my-artifact/ (nested)

Now both methods are consistent:

By name: name: my-artifact → extracted to path/ (unchanged)
By ID: artifact-ids: 12345 → extracted to path/ (fixed - now direct)

Migration Guide

✅ No Action Needed If:

You download artifacts by name
You download multiple artifacts by ID
You already use merge-multiple: true as a workaround

⚠️ Action Required If:

You download single artifacts by ID and your workflows expect the nested directory structure.

Before v5 (nested structure):

- uses: actions/download-artifact@v4
  with:
    artifact-ids: 12345
    path: dist

### Files were in: dist/my-artifact/

Where my-artifact is the name of the artifact you previously uploaded

To maintain old behavior (if needed):

- uses: actions/download-artifact@v5
  with:
    artifact-ids: 12345
    path: dist/my-artifact  # Explicitly specify the nested path

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.

What's Changed

The release of upload-artifact@v4 and download-artifact@v4 are major changes to the backend architecture of Artifacts. They have numerous performance and behavioral improvements.

ℹ️ However, this is a major update that includes breaking changes. Artifacts created with versions v3 and below are not compatible with the v4 actions. Uploads and downloads must use the same major actions versions. There are also key differences from previous versions that may require updates to your workflows.

For more information, please see:

The changelog post.
The README.
The migration documentation.
As well as the underlying npm package, @actions/artifact documentation.
