Clear or prevent forms from saving attachments in the database

asked on May 15, 2017 Show version history

Is there any configurations on how long to keep history in forms or prevent images from being saved? We have a situation where we will be uploading a mass amount of high-resolution images and we do not want them saving indefinitely as blob data into a single database.

There is no such configuration.

If you want to clean the uploaded data while keep the instances, you can manually clean them up in [cf_bp_attachment_data].

If you don't need the instances, you can delete the instances, then the data will be removed together.

Do you think it possible to transfer the blob, binary to another database? I would need to transfer a photo uploaded to another system. Ideally without needing SFTP since the DBs can talk to each other.
