We only keep a trace of those Webhook Events in our system for a **retention period of 31 days**. Past that, they are discarded, so you cannot see them using [List Webhook Events](https://docs-legacy.dfns.co/d/api-docs/webhooks/list-webhook-events) or [Get Webhook Event](https://docs-legacy.dfns.co/d/api-docs/webhooks/get-webhook-event) endpoints.
