ensureQueryData and preloading routes
Should ensureQueryData refetch stale data when used in a tanstack router loader and a Link to that route is set to preload? I'd expect the page data to be already loaded when navigating Links, but the stale data is briefly displayed before the new data is fetched.

it doesn't - it only ensures that you get any kind of data, so when stale data is in the cache, it will just return that and do nothing.
you can pass
revalidateIfStale: true to trigger a revalidation in the background.robust-apricotOP•10mo ago
Hmmm okay thanks! I did try
revalidateIfStale: true within my ensureQueryData but it didn't seem to change anything. Not sure if its something on my router config causing thatgenerous-apricot•10mo ago
then it maybe wasn't really stale: https://github.com/TanStack/query/blob/aef7ba209aeb53338dca262d48aef5719e8ac792/packages/query-core/src/queryClient.ts#L156-L161
