## TL;DR

Upgrade to 1.28.2+ and the stale or wrong evaluation results go away. Check your version of Flipt first , maintainers often fix the underlying bug in a later release, and the thread may predate it.

## Steps

1. The cache bug when calling both the new variant evaluation API and the old one was fixed in Flipt v1.28.2. Upgrade to 1.28.2+ and the stale or wrong evaluation results go away.

2. This comes from one real issue thread (https://github.com/flipt-io/flipt/issues/2236); it is the verified fix or approach from that thread, not a general manual. Check your version of Flipt first , maintainers often fix the underlying bug in a later release, and the thread may predate it.
