Cache options
LlamaParse caches parsed documents for 48 hours; invalidate_cache forces a re-parse and do_not_cache skips caching a job entirely.
About cache
Section titled “About cache”By default LlamaParse caches parsed documents for 48 hours before permanently deleting them. The cache takes into account the parsing parameters that can have an impact on the output (such as parsing_instructions, language, and page_separators).
Cache invalidation
Section titled “Cache invalidation”You can invalidate the cache for a specific document by setting the invalidate_cache option to True. The cache will be cleared, the document will be re-parsed and the new parsed document will be stored in the cache.
parser = LlamaParse( invalidate_cache=True)curl -X 'POST' \ 'https://api.cloud.llamaindex.ai/api/v1/parsing/upload' \ -H 'accept: application/json' \ -H 'Content-Type: multipart/form-data' \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $LLAMA_CLOUD_API_KEY" \ --form 'invalidate_cache="true"' \ -F 'file=@/path/to/your/file.pdf;type=application/pdf'Do not cache
Section titled “Do not cache”You can specify that you do not want a specific job to be cached by setting the do_not_cache option to True. In this case the document will not be added in the cache, so if you re-upload the document it will be re-processed.
parser = LlamaParse( do_not_cache=True)curl -X 'POST' \ 'https://api.cloud.llamaindex.ai/api/v1/parsing/upload' \ -H 'accept: application/json' \ -H 'Content-Type: multipart/form-data' \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $LLAMA_CLOUD_API_KEY" \ --form 'do_not_cache="true"' \ -F 'file=@/path/to/your/file.pdf;type=application/pdf'
