Which statement is true about the insertReport API limitations?

• A. The 100,000 most recent events are retained
• B. The 10,000 most recent events are retained
• C. Events are retained for a maximum of 24 hours.
• D. Events are retained for a maximum of 10 minutes.

Answer: (D)

This question centers on the retention window for events sent through the insertReport API. The API is designed for quick, transient reporting, so it does not keep data long-term. Events posted to insertReport are held for a maximum of 10 minutes, after which they are purged if not retrieved or consumed. This short window encourages real-time processing and prevents unbounded storage growth.

If you need to preserve events beyond 10 minutes, you’d need to route or store them elsewhere (for example, into a data lake or data warehouse) for longer-term analysis. The alternative options suggesting hundreds of thousands of events or a 24-hour retention imply a much longer storage capability, which does not align with how this API is designed to operate.
