How do I clear the cache to see the changes after updating a Splunk application?

I updated a Splunk app but I'm not seeing any of changes that came with it. I was told that the reason that I'm not seeing the changes because the older version is being cached in the browser. How do I fix this?

You do this one of two ways:

1. Clear the cache in the browsers
You can clear the cache within the browser. Note that this needs to be done on each browser. See http://www.refreshyourcache.com/en/home/ for how to do this.

2. Clear the cache in SplunkWeb
You can also clear the cache in SplunkWeb by calling the bump endpoint. This has the advantage of clearing the cache on all browsers without having to do it on each browser. You can do this by going the bump page here (replace mysplunkinstall with the domain name of your Splunk install):

I have tried this and even after clearing the cache, I do not see the expected changes on my Splunk app 😞
