Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.Within views_data_export_garbage_collect(), there's an option to set how long an export cache table should be viable via the variable 'views_data_export_gc_expires'. However, I don't see any way of setting that short of manually creating the variable. Am I not seeing it or is this something that should be added?

Steven Jones CreditAttribution: Steven Jones commentedSorry, but this is basically a way for interested parties to change the garbage collection lifetime, without hacking the module. I don't think we need a UI on changing this variable, it's basically only for people who would know how to set a 'hidden' variable anyway.

(Other than requiring that the file is downloaded within 5 minutes of being exported.) I would prefer to get data off the server asap after export but don't any unexpected surprises. :)
