Hello,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A,

You can use resources: pipelines to Consume It

You need to declare a pipeline resource that references first Pipeline:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/tasks/reference/download-pipeline-artifact-v2?view=azure-pipelines

resources:
  pipelines:
    - pipeline: pipelineA      # alias you’ll use in this pipeline
      source: 'Your-Pipeline-A-Name'
      project: 'YourProjectName'       # optional if same project
      trigger:
        branches:
          include:
            - main             # or the branch you build on
      artifact: drop           # name of the artifact to use

stages:
  - stage: UseArtifact
    jobs:
      - job: DownloadAndUse
        steps:
          - download: pipelineA
            artifact: drop

          - script: |
              echo "Listing files from artifact"
              dir $(Pipeline.Workspace)/drop
