  "dataType": "STRING"
}

EnumVariableType

HEADER - Extract from HTTP header
PARAMETER - Extract from query parameter

cURL Example

Example 1: Basic Cache Configuration

curl -X PATCH \
  "https://demo.apinizer.com/apiops/projects/MyProject/apiProxies/MyAPI/settings/cache/" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "cacheSettings": {
      "name": "Cache Settings",
      "cacheActive": true,
      "cacheOnlyHttpGetRequests": true,
      "cacheKeyType": "QUERY_PARAMS",

      "ttl": 3600,
      "handlingAction": "STOP",
      "cacheNullValue": false
    }
  }'

Example 2: Custom Cache Key

curl -X PATCH \
  "https://demo.apinizer.com/apiops/projects/MyProject/apiProxies/MyAPI/settings/cache/" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "cacheSettings": {
      "name": "Cache Settings",
      "cacheActive": true,
      "cacheKeyType": "CUSTOM",
      "cacheStorageType": "DISTRIBUTED",
      "capacity": 5000,
      "ttl": 7200,
      "handlingAction": "CONTINUE",
      "variableList": [
        {
          "name": "userId",
          "type": "HEADER",
          "dataType": "STRING"
        },
        {
          "name": "apiVersion",
          "type": "PARAMETER",
          "dataType": "STRING"
        }
      ]
    }
  }'

Example 3: Save and Deploy

curl -X PATCH \
  "https://demo.apinizer.com/apiops/projects/MyProject/apiProxies/MyAPI/settings/cache/" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "cacheSettings": {
      "name": "Cache Settings",
      "cacheActive": true,
      "cacheOnlyHttpGetRequests": true,
      "cacheKeyType": "QUERY_PARAMS",
      "cacheStorageType": "DISTRIBUTED",
      "capacity": 2000,
      "ttl": 1800,
      "handlingAction": "STOP",
      "cacheNullValue": false
    },
    "deploy": true,
    "deployTargetEnvironmentNameList": ["production"]
  }'

Notes and Warnings

handlingAction: Required field. CONTINUE allows backend call for logging, STOP prevents backend call
Cache Key: When cacheKeyType=CUSTOM, provide variableList to define cache key components
Storage Type: LOCAL cache is faster but not shared; DISTRIBUTED cache is shared across workers
TTL: Cache entries expire after TTL seconds
Capacity: Maximum number of cache entries (older entries are evicted when limit reached)
GET Only: When cacheOnlyHttpGetRequests=true, only GET requests are cached (endpoint-level cache can override)
Null Values: When cacheNullValue=false, null/empty responses are not cached
Deploy: When deploy=true, the API proxy is automatically deployed to the specified environments after saving
