Cloudflare is a content delivery network with centres around the world. Cloud cache stores static content of web pages and more than 35 file extensions by default.

Cloudflare allows writing personalized page rules to cache HTML content for specific URLs directly in the administrative control panel.

You can also create custom cache keys allowing you to cache a different version of a page based on browser language, cookie, or any arbitrary HTTP request header.

Clear Cache in Cloudflare:

Step 1: Log in to your Cloudflare account.
Step 2: In the left sidebar, click Websites
Step 3: Then tap on the domain name you want to purge the Cache from.
Step 4: In the left sidebar, click Configuration > Caching.
On the Caching Configuration page, under Purge Cache, there are cache-clearing options available:

Clear The Entire Cloudflare Cache At Once:

Step 1: Click Purge Everything
Step 2: To confirm, click Purge Everything again.
To Selectively Clear the Cache:

Step 1: Click on Custom Purge
Step 2: In the text box, type the complete URL (you can also type multiple URLs) from which you want to clear the Cache, and then click Purge.
