I use Postman extension to check out my RESTful APIs
I am trying to make a request to my "localhost", but it seems to have cached one of the query parameters.
I tried clearing cache of my chrome browser but this does not seem to work. I went to the extent of even changing the API resource name.
Has anyone come across such an issue?
Quit the app. Transfer the Partitions file from the former Postman folder to the new Postman folder. Open the Postman Desktop app. If the data populates as expected, delete the former Postman folder.
Postman sends a 'cache-control: no-cache' – which might be a headache when you're debugging caching issues. Testing the caching of requests to a web server, I was sending requests using Postman (https://www.getpostman.com/).
The cookies are mentioned under the Headers and Cookies tab in the Response in Postman. To work with Cookies, we have to click on the Cookies link available under the Params tab. On clicking on it, the MANAGE COOKIES appears. It contains all the available cookies along with the options – Add Cookie and Delete.
To delete a workspace: Select Workspaces in the Postman header, and then select a workspace. On the workspace's Overview tab, select Workspace Settings. Select Delete Workspace.
Cache-Control
request header can be used but one thing to clarify
no-cache
does not mean do not cache. In fact, it means on every HTTP request it "revalidate with server" before using any cached response. If the server says that the resource is still valid then the cache will still use the cached version.
while no-store
is effectively asking to not cache at all and is intended not to to store anything in the cache.
