# Automatic deletions from deployment history
1010

11-
When you deploy resources to Azure, the deployment details are recorded in the deployment history at the scope where the deployment occurs. Each scope—whether it's a resource group, subscription, management group, tenant—can store up to **800 deployments** in its history. Once this limit is reached, Azure **automatically deletes the oldest deployments** to make space for new ones. This automatic cleanup process was implemented on **August 6, 2020**.

You can opt out of automatic deletion to manually manage your deployment history. **Use this option cautiously**, as the **800-deployment limit** remains enforced, and exceeding it causes deployment failures.
