Edge caching saves your site/page cache to Cloudflare's global network of data centers. With the edge-caching
endpoint, you can perform actions like clearing edge caching for your sites.
Most of these edge caching endpoints will trigger longer tasks (from a few seconds to around a minute) on your environments. This is why they provide 202 Accepted
response, with an operation_id
in the body. To check the progress, you can use the /operations
endpoint.
