Each artifact from the run summary page has a URL that uses the artifact ID and run ID (this was recently changed where previously the check suite ID of the workflow run was used in the URL). With v4 artifacts all the necessary information that is needed to construct a download URL is now all available so we can output it.
The same URL that can be seen in ☝️ is what users can now use to embed in PRs or comments or a host of other scenarios.
Users can always build the URL themselves using the artifact ID now and some ENV variables, but an official output just makes it easier and folks have been asking for this for a long time.
Supports https://github.com/actions/upload-artifact/issues/50 👈 Will close out once we get a new release out
