Confluence team calendar - how to remove older events?

[Khanh Nguyen]

Is there a way (script or SQL) to remove all events in a calendar that 30 days or older?

I think this is the real feature request you are after: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/TEAMCAL-886

Thanks Sherif!

There's an open request for a remote API for team calendars which would have enabled you to script it but it's not an option right now

You could right some external script that logged into the database and manipulated the data store but it would require Confluence to be down and it would likely break any time the data format changed.

I've been thinking about this as well as I've noticed the performance isn't great for large data sets. (caveat: I'm running an older version). Only way I could think about is to delete old calendars and roll onto a new one
