Description

Hi. We want to send our Jenkins artifacts to a GCS bucket and this plugin looks promising to do that.

However, we use BlueOcean for UI and the artifacts sent via the plugin (classic upload) aren't displayed in the artifacts tab. After a bit of searching, we stumbled upon the "https://<jenkins_url>/job/<job_name>//gcsObjects/" url which displays them in the vanilla jenkins UI.

Since the informations are already there, will it be possible to also update the artifacts tab in blueocean? I don't know how complicated it can be as I am not a jenkins developer myself but I think this feature will be useful for BlueOcean users.

Research direction

Start by tracing the plugin's gcsObjects URL, which already exposes the uploaded files in Jenkins, and investigate how BlueOcean discovers artifacts for its artifacts tab. The payload names no source files or tests, so identify the relevant integration entry points first. Done means files uploaded through the classic upload path are also listed in BlueOcean.
