There was a problem hiding this comment.
Maybe 400 here rather than 500?
Maybe comment on why this is bad.
|
What happens when clients try to backfill using tokens from before the purge? |
It (successfully) returns 0 events. It probably triggers backfill to remote servers, so eventually it would probably return some events once the sever had backpaginated enough. |

LGTM |
|
Is this already a solution for #890 - delete old data to clean up database ? |
|
@rubo77 Yes, though its only a basic, manual per room API atm |
|
@erikjohnston is this manual per room API documented somewhere or can anyone can give an example? |
|
In #916 I posted a gist, that could work. If it works, we should add that in the api-rst file |
|
@4nd3r It's briefly documented at: https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/master/docs/admin_api/purge_history_api.rst |
|
@erikjohnston can you take part of my example gist from #916 into that documentation? https://gist.github.com/rubo77/458eb4808d665e619feeaf556476f73f |
|
@erikjohnston thanks. does this API also delete uploaded media from disk? |
|
I updated to 0.17 now, and now my gist file works fine |
|
#1034 will add an example to the API Documentation |
