**To decrease data stream retention period**
The following ``decrease-stream-retention-period`` example decreases the retention period (the length of time data records are accessible after they are added to the stream) of a stream named samplestream to 48 hours. ::
aws kinesis decrease-stream-retention-period \
--stream-name samplestream \
--retention-period-hours 48
This command produces no output.
For more information, see `Changing the Data Retention Period <https://docs.aws.amazon.com/streams/latest/dev/kinesis-extended-retention.html>`__ in the *Amazon Kinesis Data Streams Developer Guide*.
