Purge Without Query Parameters

You can use different ways to purge the content served by a given CacheFly service, thus leading to a refresh by CacheFly of the content from your origin.

Enabling Purge Without Query Parameters means all query variations of an object will be purged in one call. Although query parameters may still be included in the cache key, purge commands must be made without query parameters when Purge Without Query Parameters is enabled.

You can enable the Purge Without Query Parameters option for individual CacheFly services. See more on creating and managing a service.
