Windows Global Bundle Cache Location

Pipeline Integrations
1

Hi all,

Based on the documentation, the global bundle cache on Windows should be found at:

%APPDATA%\Shotgun\Caches\bundle_cache

However, the location on disk for our studio seems to be

%APPDATA%\Shotgun\bundle_cache

Is this correct? Also, in the documentation on this page:
Descriptor Docs

It mentions “Unless specified otherwise, this is the location where descriptors will be cached locally”. My question here is, where do you specify otherwise? Is this specified on a file on disk or perhaps in the Shotgrid website?

Hey Bryce,

from my experience the second path looks accurate.

You can set an environment variable called SHOTGUN_BUNDLE_CACHE_PATH which will reroute the Shotgrid bundle cache folders to the location you specify.

There are other Environment variables you can set as well, listed here:
