Data Retention
Data provided to the Janus API is temporarily logged for both processing and debugging purposes. By default, this data is maintained for 30 days before being removed from the system. Presently, this is the only data retention option, but there will be two ways to change this in an upcoming update to the 2022-10 version of the API.
- A Tenant-level default will be put in place, which will allow all sessions created under a specific Tenant to follow the new retention policy automatically. Details on how to implement this default will be upcoming upon the release of the functionality.
- Retention policy may also be changed on a session-by-session basis if desired. This will overwrite both the tenant-level and global retention policies if included in the session request. This will be done by changing the value of the “retentionPolicy” object in the Session request (presently the only allowed value is “Default”):
Therefore, the order of priority when determining retention policy, from highest priority (if provided) to least priority, is: session-level, tenant-level, global default (30 days).
