wp-json/wp/v2 not caching

    I have a few JSON requests I’m making and none of them cache. Here are the three calls that I am making:

    /wp-json/wp/v2/posts?_embed=wp%3Aterm%2Cwp%3Afeaturedmedia&per_page=10&page=1&orderBy=date&order=desc&lang=en&_locale=user

/wp-json/wp/v2/topic?_fields=id%2Cname%2Cslug&per_page=100&lang=en&_locale=user

/wp-json/wp/v2/content-region?_fields=id%2Cname%2Cslug&per_page=100&lang=en&_locale=user

    In terms of the response I get, here is the output for the first one:

    Request URL:
/wp-json/wp/v2/posts?_embed=wp%3Aterm%2Cwp%3Afeaturedmedia&per_page=10&page=1&orderBy=date&order=desc&lang=en&_locale=user
Request Method: GET
Status Code: 200 OK
Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Authorization, X-WP-Nonce, Content-Disposition, Content-MD5, Content-Type
Access-Control-Expose-Headers: X-WP-Total, X-WP-TotalPages, Link
Allow: GET, POST
Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate, max-age=0, no-store, private
...

    My hunch is this is not working based on the fact I’m getting a no-cache response for Cache-Control. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi @badg0003

    Thank you for using our plugin!

    I just did a test with your first call on a test machine and is caching just fine. Are you by any chance sending a nonce with your calls? (For authentication?). If so then that is the reason the calls are not being cached. By default we do not cache authorized calls, since the result should be different per user.

    Thanks very much for confirming. Turns out the @wordpress/api-fetch package automatically sets a nonce header, so once I converted this to use native window.fetch it worked perfectly.
