I have consulted this documentation and this documentation and this Trailhead material, but I can't find a concrete answer on this. If I use Data Retention, can I configure it so that it only deletes specific records older than X days within a Data Extension?

For instance, say I have a Data Extension named myDE, and it contains some records that are 8 days old, and other records that are 2 days old. Say I specify Retention settings on this DE of "Individual Records" and "After 7 Days". When the nightly deletion process runs, will it ONLY delete the 8-day-old rows, and leave my 2-day-old rows intact within the DE?

Yes, you can delete individual records based on how old they are.

Choose the „Individual Records” option and set after how many days they should be deleted:

  • Thanks. I'm familiar w/ both of those settings, and I mentioned them in my question. I just couldn't find in the documentation where it ever mentions that the rest of the DE will be left intact.
