    When Archive Artifacts (Archive step) is enabled, as it notes in the picture, when you are on the main <job> page, you see the link to "Last Successful Artifacts":

    Last Successful Artifacts

    But if you click on any entry in the build history:

    Build History

    You should see the artifacts for THAT build: Individual build

    You should also be aware of the following Jenkins System Properties:

    hudson.model.Run.ArtifactList.listCutoff Since: 1.33 Default: 16
    Description: More artifacts than this will use tree view or simple link rather than listing out artifacts

    hudson.model.Run.ArtifactList.treeCutoff Since: 1.33 Default: 40
    Description: More artifacts than this will show a simple link to directory browser rather than showing artifacts in tree view

    hudson.security.ArtifactsPermission Since: 1.374 Default: false
    Description: The Artifacts permission allows to control access to artifacts; When this property is unset or set to false, access to artifacts is not controlled

    You'll also want to review these S/O posts regarding Cleaning up old artifacts and Cleanup Jenkins home directory as it's quite easy to blow up your disk usage.

    NOTE: Jenkins System Property, jenkins.model.Jenkins.buildsDir, lets you relocate the builds (logs and artifacts) to outside the <JENKINS_HOME>, which helps.
