We have many filtered data extensions created in Marketing Cloud. I need confirmation on retention period for FDE's for data protection rules.

Are there any rules applied on retention for filtered data extensions?

  • What makes you think retention rules apply to your filtered data extensions?

  • Exploring the unknowns, it was a questions submitted to me for a project I am working on. If there are retention settings on the DE, would this subsequently remove the FDE one the period is up?

  • A filtered DE gets reloaded every time you refresh it so this retention thing doesn't make sense for this type of DE

Rules are based on your data retention policy. Whether it's 6 months or indefinite. However, if you have a filter and a DE that either has an ETL process or updates, then refresh your FDE and whether it is indefinite or 6-months, it won't go away.
