The _artifact repository_ is not mandatory. It refers to the concept of a repository in certain external package registries: a place where multiple packages can be grouped. By contrast, the _source repository_ refers to the {% data variables.product.github %} repository where the artifact is built. The source repository is mandatory, and is detected automatically if the artifact has a build provenance attestation.
