# Pipeline artifacts
Pipeline artifacts are files created by GitLab after a pipeline finishes. These are different than [job artifacts](job_artifacts.md) because they are not explicitly managed by the `.gitlab-ci.yml` definitions.
Pipeline artifacts are used by the [test coverage visualization feature](../../user/project/merge_requests/test_coverage_visualization.md) to collect coverage information. It uses the [`artifacts: reports`](../yaml/README.md#artifactsreports) CI/CD keyword.
## Storage
Pipeline artifacts are saved to disk or object storage. They count towards a project's [storage usage quota](../../user/usage_quotas.md#storage-usage-quota). The **Artifacts** on the Usage Quotas page is the sum of all job artifacts and pipeline artifacts.
## When pipeline artifacts are deleted
See the [`expire_in`](../yaml/README.md#artifactsexpire_in) documentation for information on when
pipeline artifacts are deleted.
