Cache Timespan

NonPlayerCharacter

How does the cache timespan feature work on a step? For instance, is this static so the cache will clear at 5:00 PM every day, or is this cache scheduled to clear every 17 hours even if not used?

Cache Timespan is tied to step completion because the flow data you are caching gets stored on the outcome of the step itself. Therefore, this timespan just designates how long the outcome of the data remains within the cache of this step at completion. To answer your question, if this step completed at 5:00 AM, the cache would be cleared at 10:00 PM.
