Does allow_retention flag in incremental decorator manage manual delete transaction?

Question

In the perspective of applying "custom retention" by doing some manual delete transaction on a dataset (Is it possible to apply manual retention on a dataset in Palantir Foundry?),

Is the "allow_retention" option in incremental decorator of the downstream transform enough to avoid triggering a snapshot on them? (Or is it only allowing delete transaction by the retention service?)

Answer 1

The 'allow_retention' option only prevents snapshot transactions when delete transactions are made by the retention service.
