Hi,
One of our clients is using Snowplow in their web shops. There is a key that is saved to local storage of this type: snowplowOutQueue_{namespace}_post2 which there are more information about here: Cookies and local storage | Snowplow Documentation. However, there is no information about the expiration of the storage key. How long does the key exist?
Hi @bjorn.norlen,
This field does not expire (even though there is a confusing snowplowOutQueue_{namespace}_post2.expires
entry as well).
The purpose of the field is to store a queue of unsent events to the collector. So before an event is sent to the Snowplow collector, it is stored in the queue. Once it is successfully sent, it is removed from the queue. So if everything goes well, the queue should be empty most of the time. It does not expire because the queue is necessary for the operation of the tracker.
