Description

Default Value

Delete Attachments

Enable / disable the permanent deletion of marked attachments that are past their retention period.
This acts as a failsafe switch to prevent unwanted deletions of marked attachments until everything is ready to be deleted.

Off

Maximum marked attachments

The maximum number of marked attachments that can be marked in a single Jira project per policy run. This cap can be helpful in case the JQL is wrongly scoped.

We recommend starting with the default value of 500 for the users to familiarise with the process and limit the review workload.

If using an evaluation license, this value is fixed to 50. Additionally, the housekeeper will only mark up to a maximum of 500 attachments.

500
