decrease_stream_retention_period

Kinesis.Client.decrease_stream_retention_period(**kwargs)

Decreases the Kinesis data stream's retention period, which is the length of time data records are accessible after they are added to the stream. The minimum value of a stream's retention period is 24 hours.

Note

When invoking this API, it is recommended you use the StreamARN input parameter rather than the StreamName input parameter.

This operation may result in lost data. For example, if the stream's retention period is 48 hours and is decreased to 24 hours, any data already in the stream that is older than 24 hours is inaccessible.
