Nginx enable cache for specific URI

I have a basic rewrite happening in my main block:

location / {
  try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php.php?$is_args$args
}

Now i would like to remove caching from all requests that starts with /api/. I was tempted to use "if" in my location block but according to nginx doc that is not a good practice.

I also try to nest a block hoping there would be some inheritence happening but i don't think i got that right as /api requests to not get handed to PHP.

location / {
  location /api/ {
     expires -1;
  }
  try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php.php?$is_args$args
}

So what would be the best way to go about this?

Try this:

location / {
  try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php;
}

location /api/ {
  expires epoch;
  try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php;
}

I've removed $args. You could get them in PHP from fastcgi params, so there is no need to have them here.
