requires the guard-cache license feature

The guard cache stores only responses that have already passed your schema validation or guardrail checks, so a hit is known to be safe to replay without checking it again. GUARD.DROP deletes a namespace with its entries, settings and counters. To keep the namespace and only clear its entries, use GUARD.FLUSH.

Return value

Case RESP2 RESP3
