-**Using Object Store**
+**In installations from source:**
 
-The previously mentioned methods use the local disk to store artifacts. However,
-there is the option to use object stores like AWS' S3. To do this, set the
-`object_store` in your `gitlab.yml`. This relies on valid AWS
-credentials to be configured already. 
+_The artifacts are stored by default in
+`/home/git/gitlab/shared/artifacts`._
+
+1. Edit `/home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml` and add or amend the following
+   lines:
 
     ```yaml
     artifacts:
       enabled: true
-        path: /mnt/storage/artifacts
       object_store:
         enabled: true
-          remote_directory: my-bucket-name
+        remote_directory: "artifacts" # The bucket name
         connection:
-            provider: AWS
-            aws_access_key_id: S3_KEY_ID
-            aws_secret_key_id: S3_SECRET_KEY_ID
+          provider: AWS # Only AWS supported at the moment
+          aws_access_key_id: AWS_ACESS_KEY_ID
+          aws_secret_access_key: AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
           region: eu-central-1
     ```
 
-This will allow you to migrate existing artifacts to object store,
