Hi @jeffersonbledsoe , 

You could use steps.<step id>.outcome to get the step result.  And you could use if conditional in the upload artifacts step, add always() in addition to let the step to run even if previous step failed.  

if: always() && steps.step2.outcome == ‘failure’

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
     - name: step1
       run: echo "hello 1"
       id: step1
       continue-on-error: true
     - name: step2
       run: |
          echo "hello 2"
          fff
       id: step2
       #continue-on-error: true
     - name: step3
       if: always() && steps.step2.outcome == 'failure'
       run: echo "hello 3"
       id: step3
