You can activate the cache buster for the SAP Fiori launchpad and SAP Fiori apps by using an SICF service.

Procedure

  1. On the front-end server, start transaction SICF.
  2. Activate the following SICF service:
    /sap/bc/ui2/flp

Results

After activating the SICF service, the launchpad with cache buster can be accessed under any of the following URLs:
