Post-Retention Data Handling in Zendesk QA

Discover what happens to your conversation data in Zendesk QA after the retention period ends and what information is retained.

What happens to conversation data after the retention period in Zendesk QA?

After the retention period ends, Zendesk QA removes conversation content and metadata. This includes external tags, end user details, and information fields like status, group, or channel.

However, not all data is deleted. Reviews with comments, ratings, reactions, disputes, and AutoQA ratings are retained even after the conversation data is removed. This ensures that important feedback and quality assessments remain accessible.
