A user asked about the retention period for the audit log in the DEX console. Another user noted that it may depend on the license tier, but the support article states a retention period of 1 year. Another user shared their experience of having 10,000 records dating back to last August. The conversation shifts to discussing the potential challenges of a limited retention period. The topic of documentation is also mentioned. It is suggested to update the documentation to include information about the retention period.

Hi everyone, I’m hoping this is a quick and easy question that can be answered without needing to open a Support ticket. When it comes to the audit log in the DEX console, how long is the data retained?
I think it depends on the license tier but somewhere between 30 days and 1 year. Their article here shows 1 year.

I do not think I can go back to the team that asked me and simply tell them it is a maximum of 10,000 records, since depending on the environment, that could either fill up very quickly or take a while. I also wonder why it is not based on a date range.

I have also asked for documentation to be updated to include this information
