copy_artifacts

Copy and save your build artifacts (useful when you use reset_git_repo)

This action copies artifacts to a target directory. It's useful if you have a CI that will pick up these artifacts and attach them to the build. Useful e.g. for storing your .ipas, .dSYM.zips, .mobileprovisions, .certs.
Make sure your :target_path is ignored from git, and if you use reset_git_repo, make sure the artifacts are added to the exclude list.

Documentation

To show the documentation in your terminal, run

fastlane action copy_artifacts

---

CLI

It is recommended to add the above action into your Fastfile, however sometimes you might want to run one-offs. To do so, you can run the following command from your terminal

fastlane run copy_artifacts

To pass parameters, make use of the : symbol, for example

fastlane run copy_artifacts parameter1:"value1" parameter2:"value2"

It's important to note that the CLI supports primitive types like integers, floats, booleans, and strings. Arrays can be passed as a comma delimited string (e.g. param:"1,2,3"). Hashes are not currently supported.

It is recommended to add all fastlane actions you use to your Fastfile.
