  The `file_store` field in `ci_job_artifacts` [corresponds to the code in `app/uploaders/object_storage.rb`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/app/uploaders/object_storage.rb#L28),
  
  Currently it only has two values,
  
  ```ruby
  module Store
    LOCAL = 1
    REMOTE = 2
  end
  
  ```
  
  This can be used to determine if the artifact exists in a [Object Storage backend](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/object_storage.html), or local storage.
