Manage artifacts

An artifact represents the binaries for a software module.

It is distributed to the devices using the underlying content distribution network (CDN).

The devices access the artifacts using a signed download URL which is only valid over a certain period of time (default: 30 days).

Upload an artifact

To upload an artifact to a selected software module, click the + icon in the Artifacts view (on the right of the Software module details).

Select one or more artifacts that you want to upload from your file system.

Once you have uploaded the artifact, its name and size will be visible as part of the list below.

Use the arrows and the minimize button on each view to see the details that you need.

You can also close the sub-navigation and open it again via the burger icon.

Apart from the file name, which is specified during the upload, the following properties are automatically set for each artifact:

  • MD5 checksum

  • SHA1 checksum

  • SHA256 checksum

  • File size

The devices must use the checksum to verify the integrity of the artifact when downloaded.
