Web UI - check cache - browser session validation

I’m trying to use the check cache feature in the web console, but all I get is

“Your browser session is still being validated for cache checking. Try again in a few moments”

waiting a few moments makes no difference…

Hey @PaulRudin do you happen to be running any browser extensions like privacy badger, or working in any form of VPN that might be altering your browser session?

I got an update from the team. This can happen under two known conditions:

  • If you’re using a long-running tab with a session expired in the background
  • If you’re profiling the cache status of a Domain+URL combination not linked to the specific service.

Do either of those senarios map to what you’re seeing?

I don’t think the first is relevant - I’ve restarted the browser, logged in again and I still see the same thing.

I’m not sure I understand the second - could you give an example?

Sorry about that – a better way of framing the question is: is the domain you’re checking in the specific service you’re analyzing?

I’m trying to check if an origin request is cached. This is in a compute service. The service makes several origin requests.
