AWS Cloudfront cache invalidation paths usage-CodePudding

I am using s3 bucket as origin in cloudfront to cache and host my reactjs website.

Moreover, while reading the

So my question is: if i use "/*" as a invalidation query would it be considered as a 1 path ? or it would be 500 paths ?

I think the answer is the same

EDIT : For your confirmation, you can find the number of invalidations for a period of time by filtering the "Cost & Usage Report" (AWS console) by service="CloudFront" and usageType="Invalidations".

Hope this answers your question. Feel free to comment for any question.

The below excerpt which clarifies regarding the paths:

The charge to submit an invalidation path is the same regardless of the number of files you're invalidating: a single file (/images/logo.jpg) or all of the files that are associated with a distribution (/*). For more information, see Amazon CloudFront Pricing.

The text is taken from docs mentioned in the link below: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudFront/latest/DeveloperGuide/Invalidation.html#invalidation-specifying-objects-paths

which means that the "/*" is a single path.
