-
-
URLMAP - Name of the URL map to operate on.
-
- FLAGS
-
-
--async - Return immediately, without waiting for the operation in progress to complete.
-
--global - (Default) The URL map is global. Regional URL maps are not supported.
-
--host=HOST - If set, this invalidation will apply only to requests to the specified host.
-
--path=PATH - A path specifying which objects to invalidate. PATH must start with
``/´´ and the only place a ``*´´ is allowed is at the
end following a ``/´´. It will be matched against URL paths, which
do not include scheme, host, or any text after the first ``?´´ or
``#´´ (and those characters are not allowed here). For example, for
the URL
, the path ishttps://example.com/whatever/x.html?a=b./whatever/x.htmlIf PATH ends with ``*´´, the preceding string is a prefix, and all URLs whose paths begin with it will be invalidated. If PATH doesn't end with ``*´´, then only URLs with exactly that path will be invalidated.
Examples:
- ``´´, ``*´´, anything that doesn't start with ``/´´: error
- ``/´´: just the root URL
- ``/*´´: everything
- ``/x/y´´: ``/x/y´´ only (and not ``/x/y/´´)
- ``/x/y/´´: ``/x/y/´´ only (and not ``/x/y´´)
- ``/x/y/*´´: ``/x/y/´´ and everything under it
- A single tag or a comma-delimited list of tags. When multiple tags are
specified, the invalidation applies them using boolean OR logic.
Example:
-
--tags=abcd,user123
