AI Commerce Cloud’s image delivery automation now supports versioning via the v parameter. This allows you to retrieve a specific version of an image without caching or automatic scaling.
How does it work?
Add a parameter to the image URL, such as ?v=7208527732, and:
The CDN bypasses any existing cache.
You see the original, updated image directly from the S3 bucket.
Automatic scaling is not triggered — the image is delivered in full resolution.
Benefits:
Quickly verify whether a new image has actually been uploaded to the server.
Developers and content managers can test and confirm image updates instantly, without delays.
Simplifies image update management, especially when replacing files with the same name.
This is especially useful during launches and in scenarios where image freshness is business-critical (for example, campaign pages or homepage banners).
You can freely generate the version key, as long as it is unique.
