Clearing Policies

To keep your release repos organized and efficient, you can enable a scheduled auto-clearing policy to move expired files to the recycle bin or permanently delete outdated ones.

Setting Clearing Policies

  1. Go to the CodeArts homepage.

    1. Log in to the CodeArts console, click , and select a region where you have enabled CodeArts.
    2. Click Go to Workspace.

      If your account uses the old billing mode (see Old Billing Modes), click Access Service.

    Log in to the CodeArts console, and click Access Service.

  2. Click a project card to access the project, and choose Artifact > Release Repos from the menu bar.
  3. Click Settings in the upper right corner of the page and select Clearing Policies.
  4. Enable Move expired files to the Recycle Bin or Clear from Recycle Bin as required, and select a retention period from the drop-down list.

    Default retention periods:

    • Move expired files to Recycle Bin: 30 days
    • Clear from Recycle Bin: 30 days

    • You can also set a period. Click Customize, enter a number, and click √ to save the setting.

      The following configurations are optional.

      • Clean up empty folders: The system removes empty folders when files are cleared.
      • Skip released files: The system retains files in the production package state when clearing files. For details, see Setting Production Package Status.
      • Skip specified paths: The system retains packages that match the file paths you set when clearing files.
        • You can set multiple file paths, each starting with a slash (/) and separated by semicolons (;) but file path names cannot contain the project name. Example: /test/folder1/;/1.0.0/test.txt
        • Spaces before and after the file path name will be automatically removed.
        • The file path uses prefix matching. Ignore directories ending with a slash (/) and ignore files with a full file path. Otherwise, the ignored file may not match.
