DS Platform updates (August 31, ‘26)

Release notes for Aug 31, 2026 - an overview of DS Platform updates, improvements, and fixes across the product.

What’s new

ADMIN - SETTINGS - DATA MANAGEMENT - AUTOMATED DELETION RULES

Account Owners can now control exactly how long assessment data stays on the platform.

A new Automated Deletion Rules panel gives admins fine-grained control over when assessment data is removed.

Rules can be created for three record types, each with its own status conditions:

  • Users — active, pending, or inactive

  • Admins — pending or inactive

  • Candidates — tied to an archived campaign, or to an active campaign with a pending, active, or inactive status

For each rule, admins set a specific deletion window. Once saved, rules run automatically on a scheduled basis.

Every rule appears in a clear table showing its type, condition, deletion window, and who created it, along with a toggle to pause a rule temporarily without deleting it. All rules can be exported to CSV for record-keeping, and removing a rule requires a confirmation step. As an added safeguard, the system flags rules with a very short deletion window (30 days or less) or those targeting active accounts, so admins can double-check before saving.
