React Query not respecting initialData when there is cache

I have a cart state stored in the cache with the key "cart." When I try to fetch cart information on the server and send it to the client using initialData, the server's data is not replacing the existing cache. Is there a way to make initialData overwrite the cache?

behaviour: react query ignores my initialData and uses cache instead expected: when i pass initalData i want cache to be overwritten

no, that's not how initialData works. it only does something when there is no data yet hence the word initial take a look at hydration - that can also overwrite

ya i did thanks small question tho when i think it overwrites query client meaning i will loose cache of previously locally stored stuff right ? because in documentation what i understood was i can share ssr query client between server side stuff

What overwrites what? I don't understand the question...
