# Set the purge period for records of exporter executions

Change the default deletion period. By default, records of exporter executions are deleted after a period of three years.

## Before you begin

**Important:** DevOps Config is now deprecated and no longer supported or available for new activation.

Role required: CDM Admin \[sn\_cdm.cdm\_admin\]

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **System Maintenance** > **Table Cleanup**.

2.  In the **Tablename** column, select **sn\_cdm\_exporter\_execution**.

3.  Change the **Age** setting to the retention period in seconds and then save the record.

    Minimum: 1 year. For example:

    -   1 year = 31 536 000
    -   2 years = 63 072 000
    -   3 years = 94 608 000
