Global Caching and Cache invalidation

Case ID: TS001976381

Tool : IBM API Connect

Topic : Global Caching and Cache invalidation

Use Case

Policy Name : Invoke
Parameter : CacheKey

Background:
In the current scenario since the backend service doesn't support caching, API connect layer is expected to perform the cache. The scenario expects Multiple APIs to share the same Cache Key and fetch value from it based on the Time to Live values. However in certain scearnios based on the input, we would like to invalidate the cache and make sure the API calls the backend to fetch a new value. Once the new cache value is reset we would like the same value to be shared across other APIs as well.

Query:
1) We are unable to find a way to invalidate a cache in API connect within its lifetime. Is there a way these cache can be invalidated?.
2) Is there a way by which cache key-value pair can be accessed across multiple APIs?
3) Can the Cache value be overriden before the cache lifetime expires?

this is possible in other API products see example: https://docs.apigee.com/api-platform/reference/policies/invalidate-cache-policy

    Hi, It's possible to invalidate a cache entry if you are an admin of the Datapower.

    We added more Datapower-level abilities to affect Doc Cache settings in APIGW in v10.

    Thanks.
