To configure an MSBuild task:

1. Navigate to the Tasks configuration tab for the job (this will be the default job if creating a new plan).
2. Click the name of the desired MSBuild task, or click Add Task and then MSBuild if creating a new task.

3. Complete the following settings:
   
   

   MSBuild configuration
   Task Description	A description of the task, which is displayed in Bamboo.
   Executable	The MSBuild executable that is available to perform the task. The executable you select will become one of the task's (and so, the job's) requirements.
   Project File	The name of the solution, project file or MSBuild project to execute, for example ExampleSolution.sln. You can include variables (see Bamboo variables).
   Options	The MSBuild command line options that you want to include.  By default, Bamboo writes the contents of the Projects File and Options fields to an MSBuild response file. See below for more information. You can include variables (see Bamboo variables).

4. If required, specify environment variables and working directory settings:

   Unable to render {include} The included page could not be found.

5. Click Save.

Passing options to MSBuild

By default, Bamboo writes the contents of the Projects File and Options fields to an MSBuild response file:

# MSBuild response file generated by Atlassian Bamboo
%CONTENTS_OF_OPTIONS_FIELD%
%CONTENTS_OF_PROJECTS_FILE_FIELD%

and then runs the following command:

msbuild.exe @<full-path-to-response-file>response-file.rsp

This allows you to use the same settings with the Bamboo MSBuild task as you would use when calling MSBuild on the command line.
