I just discovered that with this version that I recently updated to, the admin has the ability to set a default expire time for artifacts. I did not see this in the previous version I was running. The help for this admin setting is located at https://gitlab.com/help/user/admin_area/settings/continuous_integration#default-artifacts-expiration I never did find this page when googling for this issue. This solves my issue. I think it would also be useful for the admin to be able to set a maximum expires values regardless what expires_in value a user sets in their project. Artifacts can grow substantially in a short amount of time.
