Co-worker put this issue request in: <https://github.com/PrefectHQ/ui/issues/1261>
Is this a current feature we’re missing?

It might be for Cloud, but not for Server definitely

In Cloud we have retention periods for data so we can clean an agent if it hasn’t queried a Flow in the given retention period

Is this something you plan to implement in the server version?

I can’t answer on my end so you’ll have to see what the engineers say but in general, we have not been in the business of deleting user data in server and we leave that for them to manage. This would involve an automated deletion in a database table

Having some sort of config that would enable developers using server version to handle this would be immensely helpful. Thanks for your help.

I think in Cloud this has been handled by services not shipped with Server so even if we enable a config, we’d have to find an appropriate service to run this job in. I really don’t know the effort level and if there is an appropriate place for it
