# Cloudflare: create a Cache Rule — Rules → Overview → Templates → pick a Cache Rule template

## Steps
1. In the Cloudflare dashboard, go to the Rules **Overview** page.
2. Select **Templates**, then select one of the available Cache Rule templates (for example, to bypass cache for a path).
3. Review and adjust the proposed rule, then deploy it.

## End state
The new Cache Rule is added to the zone's ruleset and takes effect for matching requests; be aware that Cloudflare's default cache key already includes certain request headers even without Cache Rules, which can affect single-file purges.
