To prevent caching in jQuery AJAX requests, you can add a cache parameter to the AJAX request and set it to false. This will append a timestamp to the request URL, ensuring that each request is unique and prevents caching. Here is an example:

 1
 2
 3
 4
 5
 6
 7
 8
 9
10
11
$.ajax({
  url: 'example.com/api',
  method: 'GET',
  cache: false,
  success: function(response) {
    // Handle response
  },
  error: function(error){
    // Handle error
  }
});


By setting cache to false, you can prevent caching of AJAX requests and ensure that the data is always up-to-date.
