Support for stale-while-revalidate in Cache API

UpdateUnverifiedAdded Sep 24, 2026

The Netlify Cache API now has full support for stale-while-revalidate (SWR). This was a previous limitation of the Cache API that has now been lifted, thanks to a request from a customer. When using fetchWithCache with the swr option, background revalidation is handled automatically.
