<Accordion title="More about job results">

The Data Designer library writes several artifacts to disk when running a full generation job, including the final dataset as parquet.
When a Data Designer job runs through NeMo Services, the entire working directory of artifacts produced by the library is saved as a job result.
The `download_artifacts` method downloads this artifacts directory (stored as a `.tar.gz` archive),
unarchives it, and returns a `DataDesignerJobResults` object that can be used to load results into memory as DataFrames or other objects for programmatic inspection.

By default, `download_artifacts` saves the artifacts to a relative local directory named after the job.
An alternative path can be passed to `download_artifacts`.
