Refresh Content Cache

post

/sites/management/api/v1/sites/{id}/refresh

EXTENDED OPERATION

Refresh content cache for web crawlers and search bots, such as Google, Bing, Facebook, etc. The contents of the cache is typically served when the site is being crawled. Cache refresh occurs automatically, typically on an hourly basis, this operations allows that automatic periodic refresh to be preempted.

Introduced in release 20.2.2.

Authorization

To invoke this operation, the authenticated user or client application must have been shared with the resource and have one of the following sharing roles:

  • Owner
  • Manager

Updating Site Content Cache

A refresh can be used to make pre-rendered site content available faster. Where a site has been updated, stale site content can still be delivered until the automatic refresh occurs. If it is required for this to happen immediately a refresh should be requested. Where newly published site content is available a refresh can be triggered to incorporate that content into the site.

Recovering from Failure

Where a failure has prevented the automatic periodic pre-renderer cache refresh from completing, refreshing the cache is an alternative to republishing the site.

Monitor Site Refresh Job

When the request to create a new site refresh job has been accepted, then the progress of the site refresh can be monitored by reading the job status resource that is provided in the response Location header.

For more information, see Get the Progress of a Site Related Job.

List Pages Being Refreshed

In addition to monitoring the status of the site refresh job, details of all the pages in the job and their refresh status can be read.

For more information, see List Pages in a Site Refresh Job.

Site Cache Information

To find out the last time a site's cache was successfully refreshed, read the cache resource of a site.

For more information, see Site Cache Information.

Asynchronous Processing

This operation only supports asynchronous processing. A Prefer header with the value of respond-async must be included in the request. An accepted response will include a Location header, which provides the location of a status resource that can be polled to obtain information about the asynchronous processing.

For more information about reading the status see Get the Progress of a Site Related Job.

Path Alternative Identifiers

The default identifier for a Site resource is the Site Identifier. The Site resource supports alternative identifiers.

nameSite Name

Instead of the site identifier, the site name can be used to uniquely identify a site in the resource path. The default resource path parameter for a site is the site identifier, but when working with sites the human-readable site name is sometimes easier.
