Is it possible to force google to re-crawl an Eddystone URL target page? #225

When we change our html page content for an Eddystone target URL, it is not clear when the outgoing content for the Eddystone notification will change. This makes it very difficult to manage content, and even more difficult to A/B test user reactions to the content (since we don't know what content is being served at what time). We want to change content without changing the URL in the device so that it can be done remotely. Also, changing the target of the shortlink does not work either.

Thanks

Every notification that you change on your google console is made in real time. If you want to guarantee that you will get the Updated content of the HTML, you must send a new request to google instead keep it in cache in your app.
