Doconda is not your archive: it keeps each document only as long as you choose, from when it finishes. Then it deletes its content: the files (Word, PDF, images), your request, the review report, the events and the metadata, and for an artifact, its page and its data. Only what billing needs stays: status, format, type, pages and cost. There is no “forever”. To take each document as soon as it finishes, use webhooks.

​
For a whole project

In the dashboard, Organization → Projects → Kept for. It is the retention of what is created from then on in that project, and also of the files you upload with POST /files. What already exists keeps its own.

​
For one document

  • It works in POST /documents. Without retention, the project’s is used. Reading a file keeps nothing.
  • The document carries retention and expires_at: when its content will be deleted (set once it finishes).
  • Once deleted, the document shows content_deleted_at, and /report and /events answer 410 content_deleted.
  • An artifact with retention: "none" can’t keep shared data: it keeps it in each visitor’s browser, and its page is delivered to download.
  • If you need it gone sooner, delete it: DELETE /documents/{id}.
