# Cache Invalidation

Cache invalidation is a function that helps you to remove image from the CDN.

You can delete images using either

* URL of the original image
* Path to the image that starts with the [Image Source](/setup/source-images/http.md) alias

![](/files/mWGz1TF23IV5VUXWAjGU)

## Limitations

Invalidation is intended for use in exceptional circumstances, not as part of your normal workflow. Invalidations don't affect cached copies in web browser caches or caches operated by third-party internet service providers.

Invalidations are rate-limited. You can submit at most one invalidation per minute.
