Clear service account token caches

POST /_security/service/{namespace}/{service}/credential/token/{name}/_clear_cache

Copy endpoint

Evict a subset of all entries from the service account token caches. Two separate caches exist for service account tokens: one cache for tokens backed by the service_tokens file, and another for tokens backed by the .security index. This API clears matching entries from both caches.

The cache for service account tokens backed by the .security index is cleared automatically on state changes of the security index. The cache for tokens backed by the service_tokens file is cleared automatically on file changes.

Required authorization

Cluster privileges: manage_security
