Description

To purge cached content from a CDN endpoint, send a DELETE request to /v2/cdn/endpoints/{cdn_id}/cache. The body of the request should include a files attribute containing a list of cached file paths to be purged. A path may be for a single file or may contain a wildcard (*) to recursively purge all files under a directory. When only a wildcard is provided, all cached files will be purged. There is a rate limit of 50 files per 20 seconds that can be purged. CDN endpoints have a rate limit of 5 requests per 10 seconds. Purging files using a wildcard path counts as a single request against the API’s rate limit. Two identical purge requests cannot be sent at the same time.

Parameters

cdn_id string required

A unique identifier for a CDN endpoint.

Min: 1

files array of strings required

Example: ['path/to/image.png', 'path/to/css/*']

An array of strings containing the path to the content to be purged from the CDN cache.
