Does this require invalidating the main page in cloudfronts CDN when you add a blog post or article?

If you want the updated site to be available immediately then you must invalidate the cache.

I do it as the last step in my CI/CD process:

    - aws configure set preview.cloudfront true
    - aws cloudfront create-invalidation --distribution-id $CLOUDFRONT_ID --paths '/*'
    - curl https://google.com/ping?sitemap=$SITEMAP_URL

Thx. I was hoping there was a way to avoid that extra cost. Also, thx for sharing your code to do this.
