Clear cache

Last update:

Clearing the cache on CDN servers may be required:

  • if the content on the origin has been updated;
  • or if data is displayed incorrectly.

Cache can be cleared selectively or completely.

The clearing time depends on the number of files. Clearing the cache can take up to 15 minutes.

Clear cache completely

warning

After a full cache clear, CDN servers will start requesting content from the origin again, and the load on the origin may increase significantly.

Full cache clearing is available three times per hour.

  1. In the control panel, on the top menu, click Products and select CDN.

  2. In the CDN Resources section, in the menu of the CDN resource, select Clear cache.

  3. Select the clearing type Full.

  4. Click Clear cache.

  5. Click Clear cache. It takes about a minute to create a clearing request. Once the request is created, the clearing process will begin, and the CDN resource will switch to the PROCESSING status. Clearing will be complete when the CDN resource switches to the ACTIVE.
