Set the retention period for accumulating log data such as usage, audit, and trace, and automatically clean up data past the period.
  • Use this to manage storage and comply with data retention policies.
Data Retention settings

Admin > Settings > Data Retention — automatic/manual cleanup and task queue

​
Automatic Cleanup

When Enable Auto Cleanup (off by default) is on, data past the configured retention period is deleted automatically every day.
  • Turning the toggle on also reveals a Cleanup Time dropdown. Pick the hour the cleanup job runs; the default is 03:00.
Setting a retention period to 0 means permanent retention (no automatic deletion). To clean up, specify a number of days of 1 or more. Every type defaults to 0, so until you enter values, turning auto cleanup on deletes nothing.

​
Retention Targets

Set the retention period (days) individually for each data type.
  • Under each type name, the current record count and storage size are shown, so you can tell what to trim first.

​
Manual Cleanup

Clicking Run Cleanup Now saves the current settings and immediately deletes data past the retention period.
If every retention period is 0, nothing runs and the message “Set retention period for at least one log type before cleanup” is shown.

​
Task Queue

Check the status of the work queue that processes heavy tasks (like file processing) in the background.
  • The queue backend is shown next to the description — Redis when connected to Redis, otherwise In-process (handled inside the server process).

​
Consumers & Stuck Messages

Expanding ▶ Consumers & Stuck Messages shows the Consumers (N) list and the Oldest pending messages (N) list, along with two buttons.
Reclaiming drops the work instead of running it. Use it only when the queue is jammed, and check the list first to see which tasks disappear.
