Azure Devops Artifacts: disable saving packages from upstream sources

I have a feed for npm packages with npmjs set as upstream source (by default). When you try to install your uploaded custom package with other dependencies, those dependency packages get saved automatically in your feed to save time for future installs. I however do not want it and want my feed to only host my own packages and just download from the upstream source every time an install is made. Is there a way to do this?

What I did instead is make all our packages in a scope and modify the npmrc file to use the azure feed for only that scope so the rest of the packages still gets downloaded from registry.npmjs.org

here's what the .npmrc file would look like

registry=https://registry.npmjs.org/

@customScope:registry=https://ourregistry.org/ourfeed

always-auth=true

The answer is yes.

If you are creating new feed, you could uncheck the option Upstream sources when you creating the new feed:

If the feed is already created by you, you could delete the upstream sources. Go to the Settings->Upstream sources:

Hope this helps.
