Purge via API

How to purge via API

StrikeTracker has a rate limit on purge calls via API. To learn more, read about StrikeTracker's API purge call rate limit.

In order to purge a file named index.html from the cdn.example.com host first populate data.json with the following:

{
"list":[
 {
"url":"http://cdn.example.com/index.html"
 }
]
}

A recursive purge can also be issued to purge all content in a particular path or to purge all variations of a file using dynamic content caching.

{
            "list": [
            {
            "url": "http://cdn.example.com/index.html",
            "recursive": false
            },
            {
            "url": "http://cdn.example.com/images/", "recursive": true
            }
            ]
            }
        

Then execute:

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer [authenticate to get Bearer token]|STAGE:Write-only" \

-H "Content-Type: application/json" -d "@data.json" \
