Issue Summary

Following the docs to implement the digital products I found out the last step is not working properly.

When retrieving the list of digital products a customer has bought, the cache is forced so it never hits the API, therefore the digital products don't appear in the screen.

The mentioned file is the one placed under src/lib/data/digital-products.ts.

How can this issue be resolved?

1. Go to the mentioned file in src/lib/data/digital-products.ts.
2. This can be solved by just changing the cache param in the api call from force-cache to no-cache or no-store.
3. The function would look like this:

export const getCustomerDigitalProducts = async () => {
  const headers = {
    ...(await getAuthHeaders()),
  }

  const next = {
    ...(await getCacheOptions("products")),
  }
  const { digital_products } = await sdk.client.fetch<{
    digital_products: DigitalProduct[]
  }>(`/store/customers/me/digital-products`, {
    headers,
    next,
    cache: "no-cache",
  })

  return digital_products as DigitalProduct[]
}

Are you interested in working on this issue?

Hi @shahednasser, I'm having trouble locating the file for this issue (src/lib/data/digital-products.ts). It doesn't seem to be in this repository or the medusa-starter-default repository. I'm going to un-assign myself for now, but if you can point to the correct repository for this file, I'd be happy to take another look.
