Unable to Automatically Delete Robotic Task Execution Instances

We are trying to automatically delete the execution instances of a Robotic Task, regardless of whether the executions were completed, cancelled, or failed.

We have configured the Automatic Process Clean-Up setting by enabling the option "Delete completed or cancelled executions including artifacts (days)" and setting it to 1 day. However, the execution instances of the Robotic Task are still not being deleted automatically after this period.

Is there another configuration or step required to ensure that these execution instances are removed automatically?

Thank you in advance for your help.

AFAIK, enabling "Delete completed or cancelled executions including artifacts" should be sufficient to automatically delete completed or cancelled executions. However, for other statuses like failed executions, manual deletion is required. If the issue persists for completed or cancelled executions, please reach out to Appian Support.

Hello,

is this already solved? I've set the configuration for Automatic process clean up but it's not working. I've followed documentation details.

Thanks.
