    Rewrite rule for redierct the PDF to PDF not working

    I have tried to redirect the pdf to pdf by the following the rule in web.config

    <rule name="r_1" stopProcessing="true">
      <match url="^/media/peedin5t/xxx.pdf$" ignoreCase="false" />
      <action type="Redirect" url="/media/beebz4yx/xxx1.pdf" redirectType="Permanent" />
    </rule>

    I have cleared the cache and restart the server still it is not working even I replace the file in from path still it shows the old file only

    It can be cached by browser, check it in incognito mode in chrome

    Yesterday I made a few changes in the code as shown below. Although it didn't work yesterday (i cleared the cookies, cache and clientdependency version change and checked), it started working well today. However, it works only in my system.

    I have tried it in other systems as well. It didn't work. Also, we cannot ask every customer to clear their caches and cookies for this.

    <rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="PDF Redirection using map">
    <match url=".*" />
    <conditions>
        <add input="{PDF Redirection:{REQUEST_URI}}" pattern="(.+)" />
    </conditions>
    <action type="Redirect" url="{C:1}" appendQueryString="false" />
</rule>


</rules>

    <rewriteMaps>
    <rewriteMap name="PDF Redirection">
    <add key="/media/peedin5t/xxx.pdf" value="/media/beebz4yx/xxx1.pdf" />
    <add key="/media/peedin/FileThree.pdf" value="/media/peewerdinn/FileThreeNewFileName.pdf" />
    </rewriteMap>
    </rewriteMaps>

</rewrite>

    I found the solution. I have checked the maximum age(Max-age) of Response Header from the browser. The Cloudflare cache is set to the maximum age of 2592000(720 hours). That's why it is not reflecting the changes. So we asked the Cloudflare team to clear the cache the issue has solved
