Hello, is there a setting or a configuration for workflow executions to be disposed after completion? Does it need to be set up in Elastic or is there a Conductor OSS way to cleanup the created workflows?

Thanks

No automatic cleanup today with SQLite or Postgres. The DELETE /api/workflow/{id} endpoint exists but there’s no scheduled job calling it.
