Hi,
During the setup of bucket retention there only fixed time periods
I would like to have a custom option
I know this can be set via CLI but it would be nice to have this on the GUI as well

From community:
https://community.influxdata.com/t/influxdb2-x-bucket-retentio… n-feature-request/25546
**Proposal:**
The ability to create a bucket with a custom retention policy (a value outside of the dropdown options)

**Current behavior:**
You must select a retention policy duration from the dropdown list when creating a bucket.
**Desired behavior:**
Create a bucket with a user input retention policy.
**Use case:**
Users aren't required to install and configure the CLI to make a bucket with a custom retention policy.
Thank you!
I encourage you to comment.
PS what are you using InfluxDB for? Thanks!
Thank you!
We using InfluxDB to monitor storage system and beside as a source for Grafana and reporting.
