Disable Cache Header

Kognise
  • Redigerad

I understand that Discord ignores cache settings for image previews for performance reasons, but I think they should let you set some header such as X-Discord-Caching to disable it specifically for Discord. This way services that specifically don't want to be cached by Discord can set this header and bypass the cache.

Content from my comment below: This would allow developers of services that display dynamic data to override the cache, while still allowing most images to be cached normally. For example, I have a service that displays random colors. but doesn't work properly within Discord which is annoying.

    May I ask how this is useful?

    It would be very useful for sending notifications from a forum that would show the new/current post rather than an old one. This is currently impossible.
