Data retention
Output files are kept for 7 days and uploaded inputs for 24 hours. Task records and charges stay until you close your account.
How long data is kept
| Data | Kept for | After that |
|---|---|---|
| Generated output files | 7 days after the file is created | Deleted; a download answers 404. The task record and its charge stay. |
| Uploaded input files | 24 hours after the upload completes | Deleted; tasks already created with them are not affected. |
| Media URLs you send | Not stored as files | We keep the URL in the task's input; the file stays on your server. |
| Task records, inputs and charges | Until you close your account | Shown in the console and the API. |
Download the outputs you want to keep before they expire, and store them on your side. An expired output cannot be restored.
Delete earlier
Delete an asset you no longer need with delete an asset. Deleting frees the storage it used at once.
