Log history configuration

How do I configure the graylog history to keep for 3 months? I stayed and it only shows logs for 27 days.

Hey @yumibad86

Its you retention on the index set.

Example for 30 Days

The docs page for all those settings, but its simply a combination of index rotation (how often we create a new index) and index retention (how many past indexes do we keep)

The easiest way to guarantee you have the number of days retention you need is to set the rotation strategy (how to decide when to create a new index) set to Time Based, with a Rotation Period of P1D (Period- 1 Day).

Look for these settings in the index settings in System/Indices page. Click the edit button next to the index you wish to change and look for the rotation and retention settings towards the bottom of the page.
