Prefetch/Purge

Prefetch and purge functions support content lifecycle management by enabling proactive caching and targeted cache invalidation.

Prefetch

Configure prefetch to cache specific resources in advance at edge nodes.

  • Enter 1–25 URLs, separated by spaces. Example: https://example.com/foo/bar.txt
  • Default domain-level rate limits:
    • 10 URLs per minute
    • 100 URLs per hour
    • 1000 URLs per day

Contact Conversant to adjust rate limits for specific domains.

Purge

Configure purge to remove cached resources from edge nodes.

  • Enter 1–25 URLs, separated by spaces. Example: https://example.com/foo/bar.txt
  • Supports path-based URLs only. Wildcard and regular expression matching are not supported.
  • Purge applies to individual files, not directories.
    • Valid: https://example.com/foo/bar.txt
    • Invalid: https://example.com/foo/
