It would be interesting if glide had an option to auto-delete data after x days like jotform (I know I can do something like that with Google APP Script, but I think of something for Glide Tables). As I work with many forms this would help a lot!

Workaround:

- Auto hide the data based on creation time
- Extend the action that creates the data rows to delete the oldest expired row at the same time (via a single relation)
