Hello everyone,
I've done a lot of research on this topic, but I haven't found anything conclusive.
I'd like to know if there's a feature that allows us to automatically delete devices that have been disconnected for 90 days or more. Currently, we're doing it manually, but the goal is to automate everything.
So my question is: does a built-in feature exist, or is there an alternative that could be considered?
Thank you for your answers, have a good day.
[RESOLVED] Automatically deleting old posts

Hi Arthur,
there isn't a built-in method by default. It's possible to create an SQL query that can be used as a filter in the inventory tab to select workstations that haven't logged in for more than three months, but you'll still need to select the filter, choose the matching workstations, and then delete them.
Deleting a workstation from the console doesn't require a signature, so it could be automated. I'll create an internal ticket for a new feature, but there's no promised date yet
(but if enough clients request it, it will move up the queue) 
. Best regards,
Denis

Hello Denis,
Thank you for your reply. I understand that not all features are implemented yet. I will try to create a script using this SQL query to fulfill my request. Or, until the implementation is complete, I will continue to do it manually.
Thank you, I am eagerly awaiting this future feature (take all the time you need, of course
).
Have a good day,
Arthur
