Deleting Analytics Output
Retaining a large number of saved analytics output files can make it difficult to manage the output list. A large number of saved files also takes longer to display on the Analytics Output page. By enabling Output Cleanup, both saved and unsaved outputs are deleted at the specified schedule. If Output cleanup is not enabled, then the unsaved outputs are deleted automatically after one year.
About This Task
When you enable automatic deletion of analytic output, all output files older than the time period you select will be automatically deleted and can only be retrieved by doing a restore from a backup. This applies to both saved and unsaved outputs. Be sure there are no output files you want to retain that would fall within the selected deletion timeframe.
Steps
Navigate to the Analytics page and click View All Outputs.
The Analytics page displays.
