      Update 18 March 2021

      Hi everyone,

      Thank you for previously raising this bug to our attention. After discussing internally, we have updated the messaging shown for the audit settings to accurately reflect our audit log retention system's behavior of clearing out old audit logs every 3 months. At these 3 months intervals, you're able to choose how much data you would like to preserve.

      If this is still an issue for you, please let us know. Thank you again for providing valuable feedback to our team!

      Thank you,
      Sunny Xu

      2. Perform an action an in Confluence that will trigger a log (space creation, permission changes, space deletions, )

      Expected Results

      Logs should be kept or retained based on settings

      Workaround

      Currently, there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
