Data history refers to how many months of past data are accessible to you in the Heap app. This includes data in charts, dashboards, and event creation. The amount of data history you have is determined by your Heap plan. For example, the Growth plan includes 12 months of data history.
Data history only affects the Heap app, and doesn’t affect your Heap Connect data or how far back you can look into your Heap Connect data.
If you are unsure about what your data history is, or if you need more data history than what’s currently in your plan, please reach out to your Customer Success Manager or contact support.
FAQs

What is Data retention?
Data retention refers to the data Heap stores on behalf of our customers. Data that’s outside of retention limits will be deleted. Data retention varies by plan and customer but always will meet or exceed data history limits. Please contact your CSM or support if you have questions regarding data retention.
