Change Matrix room retention time
Systemli's Matrix home server instance has a default retention time of 30 days. We allow values from 1-180 days. Sadly, this setting is currently not exposed in Element. If you want to increase/decrease this time, do as follows:
Find you personal access token in Element by:
Click on your username in the upper left corner
All settings > Help & About > Advanced
Access Token: <click to reveal>
Find room id in Element by:
Click on room info (i) in the upper right corner
Room settings > Advanced > Room information
Internal room ID: …:systemli.org
The APi only accept a time in miliseconds, so calulate a new time:
Use curl to put another lifetime
curl -X PUT -d '{"max_lifetime": 7}' --header "Authorization: Bearer $your_access_token" 'https://matrix.systemli.org/_matrix/client/r0/rooms/$your_room_id/state/m.room.retention/'
