STEAMPIPE_CACHE_TTL

The amount of time to cache query results for this client, in seconds. The default is 300 (5 minutes).

Caching must be enabled for this setting to take effect.

This is a client setting. When connecting to a Steampipe database, you are also subject to the STEAMPIPE_CACHE_MAX_TTL set on the server. You can set the STEAMPIPE_CACHE_TTL (or cache_ttl in a workspace) from your client to reduce the TTL for your session but not to expand it. The net effect for your session will be the lower of the two values.

Usage

Set TTL to 1 minute

export STEAMPIPE_CACHE_TTL=60
