Hi, What’s the best way to download the artifact with a specified alias (the version with the alias I want)? Also, during the inference time, how can I download the artifact and use it without creating a new wandb run directory? At inference time, if a new wandb run directory is created, it will be uploaded to my account, which will add more unnecessary runs in my wandb project. Is there a way to disable creating a new run folder if I just want to download the model in artifact and test the model? Thanks. ---

Hi @taochen, `wandb artifact get` might be what you’re looking for ([docs](https://docs.wandb.ai/ref/cli/wandb-artifact/wandb-artifact-get)) ---
