Tag-based cache invalidation now supported for all responses

·2026.01.28 22:00

Key point

Vercel CDN now supports fine-grained, tag-based cache invalidation for all responses.

Details

Vercel CDN has introduced Tag-based cache invalidation, enabling fine-grained control over cached content across all frameworks and backends.

Users can add a comma-separated list of tags to the Vercel-Cache-Tag header to group related content. This allows selective invalidation of related content marked with a specific tag when content changes, without needing to purge the entire cache.

This feature extends the technology used in Next.js's ISR (Incremental Static Regeneration) to all frameworks. Cache invalidation can be performed in various ways, including:

  • Vercel Dashboard settings
  • Vercel CLI
  • Function API
  • REST API

This feature is available immediately, starting today, at no additional cost on all plans.
