Manage Version Control Settings
TeamCity allows you to store project settings as configuration files kept inside VCS repositories. These settings can be stored in the simple XML format, or using the Kotlin programming language.
In TeamCity UI, version control settings can be accessed on the Administration | Project Settings | Versioned Settings page. This article explains how to read and modify the same settings via REST API.
All endpoints related to versioned settings start with /app/rest/projects/project_locator/versionedSettings/....
View and Edit Common Configuration Settings
The current versioned settings configuration can be viewed and edited via the ...config endpoint.
