How to use environment variable as path in artifact

Question

I need to use env variable as path in artifacts, so path can be more configurable.

my pipelines is like this:

- step:
 name: Install and build
 caches:
 - yarn #cache is defined below in the definitions section
 script:
 - cd $FRONTEND_PATH
 - yarn install
 - yarn build
 artifacts:
 - $FRONTEND_PATH/build/**

but this doesn't work.

I wasn't able to solve this with a var, but knowing that your path is probably unique helps, for example

- $FRONTEND_PATH/build/**

Can become:

- **/build/**

If you can be even more specific with your path you could rule out creating unnecessary artifacts.

I'm running into this issue as well. Were you able to find a solution, @Zackky Muhammad?
