2026-09 · Expiry
A code can have an expiry (expires_at). After it, the code answers 410.
To keep scans fast, the redirect holds every code in a cache for up to
24 hours.
PATCH to expires_at now clears that cache.
The new expiry applies within about a minute instead of up to 24 hours
later. Before, a removed or moved expiry kept reporting the code as
expired, and one set to now let it keep redirecting.404 and no longer changes the
deleted code.Nothing. If you changed an expiry before this update, there is nothing to catch up on: the cache expires after 24 hours at the latest anyway.
