Hi!

We’ll I’m trying to develop over TTN Storage integration and I have faced the following problem:

1. If I don’t query over the **current day** when using after and before, I receive a 1 as a response.

(Being today the 4th of October)

[https://nam1.cloud.thethings.network/api/v3/as/applications/apartment-weather-station/packages/storage/uplink\_message?after=2021-09-01T00:00:00Z&before=2021-10-03T00:00:00Z](https://nam1.cloud.thethings.network/api/v3/as/applications/apartment-weather-station/packages/storage/uplink_message?after=2021-09-01T00:00:00Z&before=2021-10-03T00:00:00Z)

This response returns just a “1” (No data)

[https://nam1.cloud.thethings.network/api/v3/as/applications/apartment-weather-station/packages/storage/uplink\_message?after=2021-09-01T00:00:00Z&before=2021-10-04T00:00:00Z](https://nam1.cloud.thethings.network/api/v3/as/applications/apartment-weather-station/packages/storage/uplink_message?after=2021-09-01T00:00:00Z&before=2021-10-04T00:00:00Z)

This response returns data from the 2nd of October at 21:04 till today.

This brings me to the second question

1. As you can see I only have data from the 2nd of October, so, how long does Storage integrations holds the data?

Many thanks!!

In The Things Stack Community Edition, the storage integration has a retention of roughly 24 hours (it may be a bit longer if the cleanup process hasn’t run yet).

This means that if you query data from before the retention window, you’ll indeed get an empty response.
