Remove old items past a Retention Period

[domfennell]

Hi,

We wondered if you would consider implementing a retention period? We at imin think this would be beneficial to you and also the users of your data.

Retention periods are discussed in the OpenActive Developer Docs (here), which suggest setting the state of "old" items (i.e. items with a startDate that is in the past) to "deleted" and then deleting them "at least 7 days from the point in time at which it transitioned to a "deleted" state".

This would help us immensely as we sometimes need to re-ingest your feed and it takes a very long time to get through it as it includes rides from 2010 onwards - these also include reference to Sky (see here. Hopefully it would also help you as well as you would be free to delete old sessions from the database (or move them to an archive), which may help with costs/performance.

Very best,

Dom
