I have developed an application that displays a large volume of records and have implemented response caching in the API using Apigee. The cache key is based on the request URI and the idToken of the logged-in user to make the cache user-specific. However, if an admin changes the role or access privileges for another user, I need to implement an API that can invalidate the cache for that specific user. The challenge is that I cannot obtain the idToken for the other user. Is there an alternative approach to achieve this?
Also, how can I get the cache_name is there any documentation for that. If not, can you please any screenshots to get the cache_name for better understanding.
I have cache policy something similar to below
<ResponseCache continueOnError="false" enabled="true" name="RC-All">
<DisplayName>RC-All</DisplayName>
<CacheKey>
<Prefix/>
<KeyFragment ref="request.uri" type="string"/>
<KeyFragment ref="idToken"/>
</CacheKey>
<Scope>Exclusive</Scope>
<ExpirySettings>
<ExpiryDate/>
<TimeOfDay/>
<TimeoutInSeconds ref="">3600</TimeoutInSeconds>
</ExpirySettings>
<SkipCacheLookup/>
<SkipCachePopulation/>
</ResponseCache>
I’m considering adding a <CacheResource> tag to explicitly define a cache name. For example:
<CacheResource>My-cache-check</CacheResource>
- If I add this tag, will the cache name be My-cache-check?
- Is it mandatory to include the <CacheResource> tag to specify the cache name for deleting cache entries?
