[former_member80669]

Fiori 1.28, if one uses the cache-buster mechanism of the flp as described in

The fiori cachebuster tokens are transported within the FioriLaunchpad.html as
part of the ServerSideConfig.

(Note that this mechanism is distinct in 1.32, here the fine-grained ( = per library, per application) cache-buster tokens are transported as part of the
TargetMappingsRequest (1.30-1.34) or start_up request (1.36+)

 



The data structure returned contains generic tokens (ui2CacheBusterToken, ui5CacheBusterToken) and a map of
url prefixes to cachebuster tokens for known and indexed applications.

 



 

If a path prefix of a resource matches a provided path prefix, the corresponding specific cachebuster token will be used.

If it does not match, a generic cachebuster token will be used. ( typically the cacheBusting.cacheBusterToken ).

For indexed applications, one must schedule report /UI2/APP_INDEX_CALCULATE https://help.sap.com/saphelp_uiaddon10/helpdata/en/c5/e7098474274d3eb7379047ab792f1f/content.htm

The generic token listens to a general timestamp of the BSP.

 

Only applications and libraries with a proper manifest will participate in the fine-granular token mechanism.
