Properties That Need to Be Configured

The following properties must be changed in order to set up Records Retention for Actiance Vantage:

  • retention.actiance.vantage.authkey: The consumer key for the network.
  • retention.actiance.vantage.authsecret: The consumer secret for the network.
  • retention.actiance.vantage.hosts: The domain name of the Actiance Vantage server to send messages to. This value should not include a protocol or port.
  • retention.actiance.vantage.networkid: The Network ID assigned to the collaboration network registered in Actiance Vantage.

Other Useful Properties

The following properties may be changed, as desired:

  • retention.actiance.vantage.logresponses: Whether to log Records Retention activity. Defaults to true. If true, the plugin outputs additional debugging information in the logs (provided the "com.jivesoftware.retention.task.restapi.impl" logger is set to INFO or lower).
  • retention.deletes.processing.on: Whether to capture delete events. Defaults to false. Note that delete records have very little information about the content that was deleted.
  • retention.include.author.details: Whether to include author details in the header. Defaults to false. Set this to true to add a X-AuthorUsername header with the author's username as the value.
  • retention.reaper.messagearchive.number.of.days.to.keep: The number of days for which records are retained after they are sent. Records can be saved for a period of time so you can replay events. Defaults to 30.
  • retention.reaper.capturedbinary.number.of.days.to.keep: The number of days for which records are kept. Once a record is sent, it is considered "done" by the retention module. However, records can be saved for a period of time so you can "replay" events. This setting refers to binaries, including attachments, images and uploaded files.
  • retention.resolve.and.store.cclists.for.spaces: Whether to send activity to emails specified in the settings for a given space. Defaults to true. This feature can be turned off in order to improve performance.
