You can override the Build Cache setting for individual builds or projects.

​
Override the Build Cache Behavior for a Specific Build

Clients define which Endpoint(s) are used by default in the Agent Settings, but this can be overridden in the build command for a specific build. Flags are defined to allow you to override the build cache behavior in the BuildConsole for Make and Build Tools, BuildConsole for Visual Studio, and IBConsole for DevTools CLIs. For example, if you are using the BuildConsole command to run Incredibuild for make and build tools and you want to use a remote cache, you would add the /buildcacheremoteserver=[ip address:port] flag. This is especially useful for CI builds, where the build command is part of the overall CI script.

​
Setting the Build Cache Behavior for a Specific Project

You can also configure Build Cache behavior to match a specific project using a build configuration file. You can create a configuration file with settings for a particular project, and store the file together with the project source code. This allows you to use the same settings (e.g., a specific shared cache) consistently across multiple agents and CI machines. For details, see Modify Settings per Build using a Configuration File.
