Hi Manu,
As mentioned above we have used the pattern(/apis/*{apiId}*/index.js) for
static JS path, to make it easy for devs to identify which page is using
this static resource.
I hope what you are referring to as Dynamic URL is the segment /*{apiId}*/,
as for backend JS file this placeholder value will be a change for each
HTTP request depending on the UUID of the API. But since this pattern has
been used in front-end JS file resource path, I don't think this(*{apiId}*)
URL[2] segment will change dynamically, making it hard for caching in the
browser.
I checked with the latest APIM 3.0 m2 release, How the URL for this static
JS is generating from UUF. it seems that URL[3] for the index.js remains
unchanged for any API and Since the URL kept unchanged between different
API overview pages, the index.js file has served from cache[1] for
consequent requests.
Please correct me if the above behavior is incorrect for aforementioned JS
file.
Regards
~KasunTe
