Difference history in Activity and Background Tasks

Hi @ganncamp,
I wanna ask about menu activity in Sonarqube. Last week i scanned a project twice in a day. The history was shown in Background Task. But only the latest scan that was displayed in menu Activity. Why could this happen?

Thanks

Hi,

The background tasks page lists all the analyses that have taken place. The Activity page lists the analyses that are still on record. The routine housekeeping cleans out old analyses on a regular basis, which is why some analyses no longer show up there. More in the docs: https://docs.sonarqube.org/latest/instance-administration/housekeeping/
