Cloudfront Distribution Link showcasing old build

Question

Hey,

ISSUE:

We are hosting a Unity WebGL build on AWS S3 bucket and using cloudfront to distribute the build. The issue is with the domain name link.

While its working with the latest build that has been uploaded on S3 for me and my team, one of our team member, accessing the link from USA, is unable to access the latest build on the same link and the previous build (with some previous errors) is running on the same link.

We would appreciate any help in understanding what might be causing this issue.

Best Regards,
Affaf Imran

Answer

It sounds like the user access the CloudFront (CF) cache from the USA is seeing an older version. I recommend clearing/invalidating the cache. This will force CF to get the new version of the file

I hope this helps!
