How does pwa update the cache?

if I have an api, the data returned by the api will not be affected by user actions, so it rarely changes, and I intercept the api, using caching first. If my data changes, how can I abandon the original cache and adopt the new data? How do you let sw know that the data has changed and that you need to update the cache? Is there a similar plan?

there are usually two types of pwa update caches: automatic updates and manual updates.

you can update it manually during register.

navigator.serviceWorker.register('/service-worker.js').then(reg => {
  // sometime later
  reg.update();
});

or add the version like this, not update every visit

var version = 'v1';

navigator.serviceWorker.register('/service-worker.js').then(function (reg) {
    if (localStorage.getItem('sw_version') !== version) {
        reg.update().then(function () {
            localStorage.setItem('sw_version', version)
        });
    }
});

or update automatically. In the sw.js file, update the cacheName in each manual update

.
//  active
var cacheName = "cachev2"
self.addEventListener('install', function (event) {
    event.waitUntil(self.skipWaiting());
});

self.addEventListener('activate', function (event) {
    event.waitUntil(
        Promise.all([
            // 
            self.clients.claim(),

            // 
            caches.keys().then(function (cacheList) {
                return Promise.all(
                    cacheList.map(function (cacheName) {
                        if (cacheName !== 'cachev1') {
                            return caches.delete(cacheName);
                        }
                    })
                );
            })
        ])
    );
});

or there is another way, that is, the API is followed by query with a parameter of version. If this parameter is changed, the path of the whole fetch match will be different.
but this will modify the logic code, which is not very good.
