bazel build - how to get name of temporary directory

I am running bazel build using the environment variable:

TEST_TMPDIR=/tmp/.bazel

(This way it does not use ~/.cache/bazel and instead uses /tmp/.bazel)

After the build completes, I can do:

ls -lah /tmp/.bazel/_bazel_dev/
total 20K
drwxr-xr-x 5 dev root 4.0K Dec 15 13:26 .
drwxr-xr-x 3 dev root 4.0K Dec 15 13:26 ..
drwxr-xr-x 3 dev root 4.0K Dec 15 13:26 cache
drwxr-xr-x 8 dev root 4.0K Dec 15 13:36 f0dfd1906214c4c442535f524f4c9395
drwxr-xr-x 3 dev root 4.0K Dec 15 13:26 install

Now is there a bazel command (or bash commands) I can run to get the temp dir name? f0dfd1906214c4c442535f524f4c9395

If there are multiple such folders from builds of other unrelated projects also, I just want to get the dir name for my bazel build.

(The reason I need this is because I need some files from this directory for another build)

You want the output from bazel info

Most likely you are after the output_base path but you should be able to find all the other paths you need from the output of that command.
