Where are artifacts downloaded, and how can I control that?

By default, W&B downloads artifacts to the artifacts/ folder. To change the location:

• Pass the path to wandb.Artifact().download:

  wandb.Artifact().download(root="<path_to_download>")
  

• Set the WANDB_ARTIFACT_DIR environment variable:

  import os
  os.environ["WANDB_ARTIFACT_DIR"] = "<path_to_download>"
