        }  
      ]  
    }  
  ],  
  "Lifecycle": {}  
}

I can manually unzip the file after deployment but the deployment fails to unzip it (trys to run main.py but file doesn't exist. I can manually unzip and then restart ggc and it'll read it)

Accepted Answer

Hi,  
In order to use archived artifacts in the lifecycle of a component within the recipe, you have to specify the unarchived path of the artifacts which is **{artifacts:decompressedPath}**. In your case, this will be as shown below where main2 is the name of the zip file and main.py is file inside it.

"Lifecycle": {  
"Run": "python3 {artifacts:decompressedPath}/main2/main.py"  
},

Thanks,
