Question

App Platform Clear Cache

I’m currently using the API to create an app on the App Platform. However, when I teardown the app and visit its domain, a cached version of it is still being served from Cloudflare.

How do I go about clearing the cache when tearing down an app? Thanks!

Hi @ShuStudios,

After the app is destroyed, you shouldn’t be able to access the app using the domain. Have you tried in Incognito or after clearing the browser cache ?

Could you please try hitting the domain in Incognito after the app is completely destroyed and let me know if that helps.

Cheers, Taha
