### Download All Artifacts
If the `name` input parameter is not provided, all artifacts will be downloaded. **To differentiate between downloaded artifacts, a directory denoted by the artifacts name will be created for each individual artifact.**
If the `name` input parameter is not provided, all artifacts will be downloaded. To differentiate between downloaded artifacts, by default a directory denoted by the artifacts name will be created for each individual artifact. This behavior can be changed with the `merge-multiple` input parameter.
Example, if there are two artifacts `Artifact-A` and `Artifact-B`, and the directory is `etc/usr/artifacts/`, the directory structure will look like this:

run: ls -R path/to/artifacts
```
To download them to the _same_ directory:
```yaml
steps:
- uses: actions/download-artifact@v4
with:
path: path/to/artifacts
merge-multiple: true
- name: Display structure of downloaded files
run: ls -R path/to/artifacts
```
Which will result in:
```
path/to/artifacts/
... contents of Artifact-A
... contents of Artifact-B
```
### Download multiple (filtered) Artifacts to the same directory
In multiple arch/os scenarios, you may have Artifacts built in different jobs. To download all Artifacts to the same directory (or matching a glob pattern), you can use the `pattern` and `merge-multiple` inputs.
```yaml
jobs:
upload:
strategy:
matrix:
runs-on: [ubuntu-latest, macos-latest, windows-latest]
runs-on: ${{ matrix.runs-on }}
steps:
- name: Create a File
run: echo "hello from ${{ matrix.runs-on }}" > file-${{ matrix.runs-on }}.txt
- name: Upload Artifact
uses: actions/upload-artifact@v4
with:
name: my-artifact-${{ matrix.runs-on }}
path: file-${{ matrix.runs-on }}.txt
download:
needs: upload
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- name: Download All Artifacts
uses: actions/download-artifact@v4
with:
path: my-artifact
pattern: my-artifact-*
merge-multiple: true
- run: ls -R my-artifact
```
This results in a directory like so:
```
my-artifact/
file-macos-latest.txt
file-ubuntu-latest.txt
file-windows-latest.txt
```
### Download Artifacts from other Workflow Runs or Repositories
It may be useful to download Artifacts from other workflow runs, or even other repositories. By default, the permissions are scoped so they can only download Artifacts within the current workflow run. To elevate permissions for this scenario, you can specify a `github-token` along with other repository and run identifiers:
