Storage And Retention
Track active and archived evidence without letting storage state become invisible.
Documents are retained as file objects with metadata that supports migration-safe links from older Convex storage to R2-backed storage.
Storage is counted because source evidence can be large and firms often upload repeated client batches.
Storage states
| State | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Active | The document remains in regular Data Room views and counts toward active work. |
| Archived | The document is retained but separated from active review. |
| Purge eligible | The document may be eligible for later deletion based on policy. |
Upload-session recovery
If a browser uploads bytes but closes before finalization, a recovery sweep can sync metadata, validate the object, finalize the document, and enqueue processing when possible.
Expired unrecoverable sessions are marked abandoned and their stored objects are discarded when present.
