CloudFront Purge Overview

A lightweight plugin that creates an invalidation for CloudFront edge caches on entry save. The invalidation is specific to the entry being saved and preserves all other cached objects.

Configuring CloudFront Purge

Add an IAM access key
Add a IAM secret key
Add a CloudFront distribution ID
Add the region in which the distribution is, example: us-west-1.

Note: IAM role permissions must be configured to allow for invalidation creation for CloudFront.

Using CloudFront Purge

Note that Amazon CloudFront charges for invalidation requests. Since invalidation requests can quickly add up when purging individual URLs, you should be aware of the potential costs. Kayqq takes no responsibility whatsoever for expenses incurred.

No additional charge for the first 1,000 paths requested for invalidation each month. Thereafter, \$0.005 per path requested for invalidation.

A path listed in your invalidation request represents the URL (or multiple URLs if the path contains a wildcard character) of the object(s) you want to invalidate from CloudFront cache.
