Artifact Manager is the default and stores the Allure report using the Artifact Manager configured for the build.

Local on Jenkins controller disables Artifact Manager use for Allure reports and keeps them only in the build directory on the Jenkins controller node. This can be used with Artifact Managers that do not preserve artifacts across multiple archive operations. Other build artifacts continue using the configured Artifact Manager.

Local storage consumes disk space on the Jenkins controller. When a remote Artifact Manager is active, artifact-only cleanup might not remove the locally stored Allure report; deleting the build removes it.
