Purging Logs
The process of systematically deleting unwanted data from the database is called purging. Each time you purge a log unit the corresponding purging log entry is created and can be viewed in API Audit log page in the API-Portal User Interface. For example, when you purge a certain set of analytics logs, the corresponding purging log entry is created and is displayed in the API Audit log page in the API-Portal User Interface. You can purge logs by setting the required date or duration per tenant in the API-Portal. There is only a single purge log entry that provides information about the type of logs that have been purged along with the date or duration.
You can purge logs in one of the following ways:
The purge service supports the following types of log entries:
Audit logs - API and User audit logs
Analytics - Page Views and other analytics data
Approval - Objects of approved users
Stale lsers - Users who have not been activated through the email confirmation workflow
API analytics - Run-time analytics data for APIs
