Add Expiring Download URL to Env Variables for IPA/APK files

Description of the feature request

In the deploy to bitrise build step there should be an environmental variable with a link to directly download the IPA/APK.

Use case / for what or how I would use it

This would allow our test server to download build directly without having to push to a middle server.

Hi @YishaiInv! This is already available, but it’s not expiring I don’t believe. The Deploy to Bitrise.io step exposes the $BITRISE_PUBLIC_INSTALL_PAGE_URL variable.

Hi @bitce

This only links to the web page but won’t directly download one of the app artefacts.

@YishaiInv

Thanks for the clarification, we’ll look into it! :slight_smile:

Any progress here? I managed already to fetch the expiring_download_url of artifacts. But this is only valid 5 minutes?! I cannot send that via mail or post it into any slack message since it is invalid right after. Any possibility to extend the expiration time?

Hi @stherold , did you manage this?

Nope not really. In the end we didn’t use the artifacts url

You can get direct urls to the files deployed using the $BITRISE_PERMANENT_DOWNLOAD_URL_MAP Output Environment Variable
