# IngestDeleteOldMessages

A Boolean value that specifies whether to delete messages from the index when they become older than MinMessageDate.

This parameter affects the behavior of the connector when you configure a relative date for MinMessageDate and a message becomes older than the specified time duration. By default, the connector removes the message from the index. If you set this parameter to `False`, the connector does not remove the message from the index.

To limit the size of the task datastore, the connector purges information about any message that becomes older than MinMessageDate. So if you set this parameter to `False`, old messages are not deleted from the index - even if they are subsequently deleted from Slack.

Default: | True

Configuration Section: | TaskName or FetchTasks
