How to set page cache expires to 7 days?

I am using varnish with default magento 2.3.3 VCL and the default nginx configuration that comes with magento install. At present I see the expires is set to -1. How can I set expires to one week?

Hi @riyaaaz,

In order to set the expires time for your cache, you’ll need to add it to your location block where caching has been allowed.

It will look something like this

location ~* \.(?:*)$ {
    expires 2d;
    add_header Pragma public;
    add_header Cache-Control "public"
}

See the expires 2d. That means that every cache will expire after 2 days.
