Business event bucket assignment

Business events can be stored in buckets that have three different retention periods. You create rules with matcher-specific DQL queries to assign matching business events to a bucket. The default retention period for a built-in business events bucket (default_bizevents) is 35 days. You can also create custom buckets with a specific retention period.

For custom buckets, the possible retention period ranges from 1 day to 10 years, with an additional week.

Business events can be stored in different buckets that determine the retention time and access permissions. You can create rules with matcher-specific DQL queries to assign matching business events to a bucket. By default, every incoming business event is stored in the default bucket with a 35-day retention period. Longer and shorter periods can also be set.

Choose the retention period

Go to Settings > Business Analytics > Ingest Pipeline > Bucket assignment.
In the Business event bucket assignment, select Add rule and name your rule.
Select the Bucket.
Add a Matcher to your rule by typing or pasting your matcher-specific DQL query. Events that match your rule will be assigned to your selected bucket. If no rules match, events will be assigned to the default bucket.
Select Save changes.

Matcher examples

If you needed to add only one event type (for example, com.easytrade.buy-assets), the matcher would be:

matchesValue(event.type, "com.easytrade.buy-assets")

For two event types within the same event provider, the matcher would be:

matchesValue(event.type, "com.easytrade.buy-assets") or matchesValue(event.type, "com.  easytrade.sell-assets")

In this use case, however, you need to take all event types under the EasyTrade event provider, so it is sufficient just to use:

matchesValue(event.provider, "www.easytrade.com")
