Enable cache busting

Right now when I try to access a file in the CDN like https://bucket.sfo2.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/images/profile.jpg and add a versioning query string, the query string is ignored and thus my application cannot easily invalidate the cache when I update an object in the CDN.

 

The Idea is that the CDN does not ignore the query string when deciding if an object is cached or not.

    +1. I was hoping to do cache busting via query params, but the edge cache just keeps it around. Is the workaround to just upload something like user avatars to a different path?
