Scrub messages from ElasticSearch

[vAJ]

Is there anyway post ingestion that we can groom certain messages out of the indexes without dropping them?

I've been able to identify a few message types that I now have a drop filter on, but that won't help me for messages already received and taking up space.

It's possible on the backend but not from the web interface as far as I know:

Ok. Since we're only doing 14 day retention right now, I'm just going to let them expire.

That is an easy workaround. We'll go ahead and close the thread. Thanks.
