Angular IE Caching issue for $http

Question

All the ajax calls that are sent from the IE are cached by Angular and I get a 304 response for all the subsequent calls. Though the request is the same, the response is not gonna be the same in my case. I want to disable this cache. I tried adding the cache attribute to $http.get but still, it didn't help. How can this issue be resolved?

Answer 1

To resolve this issue you can either append a unique query string to the request.

$http({ 

url: '...', 

params: { 'foobar': new Date().getTime() } 

})

If you have access to the server, then you can make sure that necessary headers are set to prevent caching. If you're using ASP.NET MVC this answer might help.
