## `DELETE_ON_INGEST_QUEUE`

Option | `DELETE_ON_INGEST_QUEUE`
Description | Deletes events from the ingest queue
Default | `true`

Deletes events from the ingest queue when they have been saved in LogScale. It is still important to configure Kafka retention on the ingest queue.

ini

    DELETE_ON_INGEST_QUEUE=true

The Kafka retention defines how long data can be kept on the ingest queue and, thus, how much time LogScale has to read the data and store it internally.

See `KAFKA_SERVERS` for more information and an example.
