04/04/2022, 6:23 PMHeya! Can we set log retention policies on the debug stack? I'm not seeing a way, but maybe I'm missing something. I'm just trying to get rid of all the "never expire" logs. Thanks!!

04/04/2022, 6:25 PMFor the main stack, we can do...
Copy code
app.setDefaultFunctionProps({
logRetention: RetentionDays.ONE_WEEK,
});f

Hey @Tim V, sorry about the delay in the response. The log retention for Lambda functions in the debug stack should default to 1 week.

Could it be you are using an older version?

The log groups in your screenshot that do not have retention set are from Custom Resources.

There isn’t a good way to set log retentions for these Lambda functions. The reason being, when u set log retentions, behind the scene CDK has to create a custom resource to set it. But that custom resource will in turn create a new Lambda function. And that new function has Never expire retention.

Let me know if that makes sense.

We should definitely find a better to set retention for all function. Let me an issue to track this https://github.com/serverless-stack/serverless-stack/issues/1627
