NAME

gcloud alpha edge-cache services invalidate-cache - invalidate the cache for an EdgeCacheService resource

SYNOPSIS

gcloud alpha edge-cache services invalidate-cache (SERVICE : --location=LOCATION) (--host=HOST --path=PATH --tags=[TAGS,...]) [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]

DESCRIPTION

(ALPHA) Invalidate the cache entries associated with an EdgeCacheService resource.

EXAMPLES

To invalidate content via a tag, or tags for a given host for an EdgeCacheService named 'my-service':

$ gcloud alpha edge-cache services invalidate-cache my-service \ --tags="status=404" --host="media.example.com"

To invalidate all content under a specific path, specify an exact path, or a prefix. Prefixes are denoted with a trailing * character.

$ gcloud alpha edge-cache services invalidate-cache my-service \ --path="/static/*"

You can optionally combine this with a status code. For example, to invalidate all cached HTTP 404s:

$ gcloud alpha edge-cache services invalidate-cache my-service \ --tags="status=404" --path="/static/*"

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS

Service resource - The EdgeCacheService resource you want to invalidate the

cache for. The arguments in this group can be used to specify the attributes of this resource. (NOTE) Some attributes are not given arguments in this group but can be set in other ways. To set the project attribute:

provide the argument service on the command line with a fully specified name;

set the property core/project;

provide the argument --project on the command line.

This must be specified.

SERVICE

ID of the service or fully qualified identifier for the service. To set the service attribute:

  • provide the argument service on the command line.

This positional argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.

--location=LOCATION

The location Id.

To set the location attribute:

  • provide the argument service on the command line with a fully specified name;

  • provide the argument --location on the command line;

  • use global location.

REQUIRED FLAGS

At least one of these must be specified:
--host=HOST

The hostname to invalidate against. You can specify an exact or wildcard host - e.g. "video.example.com" or ".example.com" - based on host component.

--path=PATH

The path to invalidate against. You can specify an exact or wildcard host - e.g. "/videos/hls/139123.mp4" or "/manifests/" - based on path component.

--tags=[TAGS,...]

A list of cache tags used to identify cached objects.

  • Cache tags are specified when the response is first cached, by setting the "Cache-Tag" response header at the origin.

  • By default, all objects have a cache tag representing the HTTP status code of the response, the MIME content-type, and the origin.

  • Multiple cache tags in the same revalidation request are treated as boolean OR - e.g. tag1 OR tag2 OR tag3.

  • If a host and/or path are also specified, these are treated as boolean AND with any tags.

Up to 10 tags may be specified in a single invalidation request.

GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS
