Strapi API returning outdated information

Discord Q&A strapi-questions

I think this might be a cache problem. When I request the API for articles, and I change a featuredArticle property on one of the articles to true, it does not update when I refresh the page - the featuredArticle property remains false.

I think there must be a problem where strapi is cacheing the old information and not flushing changes.

Strapi itself has no built in cache meaning that cache is somewhere else, either at the network level, application level (if you have something like the cache plugin), or at the database level.
