Note: The availability of this feature depends on your user role and license.

Users with an Administrator role can configure the following run clean up settings to save system resources:
- You can configure Data360 Analyze to automatically purge runs generated by schedules.
- You can delete temporary data after a successful run.
Configure automatic run purging
Automatic run purging is useful if you have a high volume of regular runs and only need to see the most recent.
- From the folders panel, click Settings.
- Select Scheduling.
- From the Details panel, specify how often you want to remove scheduled runs from Data360 Analyze by selecting the relevant check box(es) and entering the required number of runs and/or days. Tip: You can select a combination of the two options (Keep X most recent runs and Delete runs older than X days). For example, if you specify that you want to keep the last five runs, and you also specify that you want to delete any runs that are older than five days - if the fifth run is older than five days, it is deleted.
- Click Apply Changes.
The cleanup settings apply to all runs generated by schedules. When enabled, the cleanup will run every day at midnight. When Keep X most recent runs is used, the purge routine takes place after each run of the schedule.
Delete temporary run data
You can save system resources by deleting temporary files when a run completes successfully.
Tip: These settings only affect temporary data for successfully completed runs. Temporary run data for failed runs is always retained until the run is deleted. Deleting temporary run data does not prevent you from opening a read-only copy of a completed run. This, however, only shows the counts for each node and not, for example, the results on a node's output pin.
- From the folders panel, click Settings.
- Select Scheduling.
- From the details panel, specify whether you want to delete temporary run data when a run completes successfully. Choose from:
- Never - Select this option if you have a requirement to retain all temporary run data.
- Immediately - Select this option if you do not need to keep temporary run data for successfully completed runs.
- After X days - Select this option if you need to keep all temporary run data for a specified period of time, for example if you have an audit requirement to retain all run data for 30 days.
