In order to use the binary logging format for MSBuild introduced in MSBuild 15.3, I have to run MSBuild and pass in the /bl command-line argument:
msbuild.exe MySolution.sln /bl
How can I have Visual Studio pass this argument every time I build from within Visual Studio? Or, is there some other way to view the output from within Visual Studio?

To create a build log file for a managed-code projectOn the menu bar, choose Build > Build Solution. In the Output window, click somewhere in the text. Press Ctrl+S. Visual Studio prompts you for a location to save the build output.
With Visual Studio 2022, it's installed under the Visual Studio installation folder. For a typical default installation on Windows 10, MSBuild.exe is under the installation folder in MSBuild\Current\Bin.
To retrieve a list of all the BinLogs present in your system, make use of the following command: mysql> SHOW BINARY LOGS; This command will display a list of all binary logs present in the system only when the binary log is enabled otherwise, it gives an error.
Use MSBuild at a command promptCommand-line options let you set properties, execute specific targets, and set other options that control the build process. For example, you would use the following command-line syntax to build the file MyProj. proj with the Configuration property set to Debug .
Install the Project System Tools (referenced by @MSalters).
Also install the MSBuild Binary and Structured Log Viewer.
The Project System Tools adds a new Build Logging window. When you right-click on entries in the window and choose Open Log..., the log will be opened using the viewer.
