Purge the entire cache for a domain

DELETE
/domains/{domain}/cache/
curl --request DELETE \
--url https://api.nsin.cloud/domains/example.com/cache/ \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>'

Removes every cached entry for the domain.

The sweep runs in the background: a 202 means it was queued and deleted is not yet known. Requires cache.edit and a plan including cache purge.

domain
required
string

The domain name (for example example.com) — not a numeric id.

Example
example.com

Purge completed synchronously — nothing was cached.

Media type application/json
object
deleted
integer
accepted

The purge was queued to run in the background, so deleted is not yet known.

boolean
Example generated
{
"deleted": 1,
"accepted": true
}

Purge queued; it runs in the background.

Missing, malformed, revoked or expired API key, or a key whose owning user row is gone. A key whose owning account has merely been deactivated is not this: that is 403 with code: account_suspended, because the credential itself is intact and re-issuing it changes nothing.

Media type application/json

The error shape used by every endpoint. error is always present. code is present only on the failures that have one — do not require it, and do not parse error to recover it.

object
error
required

Human-readable description of what went wrong.

string
code

Stable machine-readable reason. Present on some failures only; the wording of error may change, this will not.

  • account_suspended403. The account behind the credential has been switched off, by an admin or by its provider. Every authenticated route answers this, so treat it as terminal rather than retrying.
  • domain_disabled409, not 403. You have every right to the operation; the domain is simply switched off and is not being served, so its configuration cannot change. It stays readable, and writes work again once it is enabled.
  • managed_by_reseller403. The account is a reseller’s client and this surface belongs to its provider. See If your account is managed by a reseller.
  • invite_email_mismatch403 from POST /invites/{token}/accept. The invitation was addressed to a different email; the body also carries invited_email, masked.

A panel session — not an API key — can additionally see session_check_failed on a 503, which means the session could not be verified, not that it is invalid. Retry it; do not discard the token.

Examples
Example invalidKey
{
"error": "invalid API key"
}

Read-only key, insufficient role, or cache purge is not on the plan.

No such domain, or it is not visible to this account. Domains you cannot access are reported as not found rather than forbidden.
