Hi there, I have an Node/React app deployed to App Platform. I am facing a problem when I deploy any changes, I am not served the new production build files. I am served files but nothing gets rendered on the page. If I open the chrome debugger, and right click on refresh to get empty cache and hard reload, my app begins rendering again. I’d guess I am being served old production assets, and they’re no longer valid? Not sure why. Anyone had this problem?

After even further investigation, the
react-clear-cachedid not do the trick. Still looking for a solution to this.For anyone who finds this, I believe I fixed it with the use of react-clear-cache to conditionally check for latest production builds. I also enabled the service worker in create react app via serviceWorker.register() in the top level index.js
on further inspection it does seem the main.[HASH].js file is not being updated. Hard reloading via clearing cache does load the correct hashed js file. Is there a way to tell App Platform to clear the cache on deploy to the client?
