Turbo build machines can now be enabled per deployment

By Steven Van ·

Turbo build machines can now be turned on for a single deployment via commit message, CLI flag, or the REST API, without changing project settings.

Vercel now lets Turbo build machines be turned on for a single deployment, without changing the project's overall build machine setting. This is meant for cases where extra resources are needed temporarily, rather than on every build.

  • Add #VERCEL_BUILD_MACHINE=TURBO to a Git commit message before pushing to GitHub
  • Run vc deploy --turbo with Vercel CLI 59.20.0 or later
  • Set buildMachine to turbo when creating a deployment through the REST API

More detail is in Vercel's managing builds documentation, via the changelog entry.
