= Delete expired data API
++++
<titleabbrev>Delete expired data</titleabbrev>
++++
Deletes expired and unused machine learning data.
[[ml-delete-expired-data-request]]
== {api-request-title}
`DELETE _ml/_delete_expired_data` +
`DELETE _ml/_delete_expired_data/<job_id>`
[[ml-delete-expired-data-prereqs]]
== {api-prereq-title}
Requires the `manage_ml` cluster privilege. This privilege is included in the
`machine_learning_admin` built-in role.
[[ml-delete-expired-data-desc]]
== {api-description-title}
Deletes all job results, model snapshots and forecast data that have exceeded
their `retention days` period. Machine learning state documents that are not
associated with any job are also deleted.
You can limit the request to a single or set of {anomaly-jobs} by using a job
identifier, a group name, a comma-separated list of jobs, or a wildcard
expression. You can delete expired data for all {anomaly-jobs} by using `_all`,
by specifying `*` as the `<job_id>`, or by omitting the `<job_id>`.
[[ml-delete-expired-data-path-parms]]
== {api-path-parms-title}
`<job_id>`::
(Optional, string)
Identifier for an {anomaly-job}. It can be a job identifier, a group name, or a
wildcard expression.
[[ml-delete-expired-data-query-parms]]
== {api-query-parms-title}
`requests_per_second`::
(Optional, float) The desired requests per second for the deletion processes.
The default behavior is no throttling.
`timeout`::
(Optional, string) How long can the underlying delete processes run until they are canceled.
The default value is `8h` (8 hours).
[[ml-delete-expired-data-request-body]]
== {api-request-body-title}
You can also specify the query parameters (`requests_per_second` and
`timeout`) in the request body.
[[ml-delete-expired-data-example]]
== {api-examples-title}

// TEST
When the expired data is deleted, you receive the following response:
