Archive Retention Period (Days)
The archive data retention period in days to use for the BimlFlex database cleanup process.
The cleanup process deletes rows from the metadata archive that were last modified more than this many days ago. A value that is not numeric is ignored, and the cleanup falls back to 90 days when no usable value is found; the retention period can also be overridden when the cleanup is invoked.
When to Change This Setting
Increase it to keep a longer history of archived metadata changes; decrease it to keep the BimlFlex database smaller.
