Describe the enhancement:
I propose the addition of a 'Delete' button within the Elastic Fleet interface, allowing users to easily remove diagnostic logs collected through Fleet. This feature should allow users to select specific logs or select logs based on a set of criteria like date range and log source, and remove them directly from the Fleet interface without having to manually access Elasticsearch indices.

Describe a specific use case for the enhancement or feature:

In environments where a large number of logs are generated, the accumulated diagnostic data can quickly lead to increased storage costs and management overhead. Having a 'Delete' button directly in the Elastic Fleet interface will empower users to manage their storage more effectively and ensure that unnecessary or obsolete data can be promptly removed.
This enhancement is particularly crucial for organizations with stringent data retention policies or those operating in environments with limited available storage, enabling them to maintain compliance and optimize resource utilization efficiently.
For instance, a user could employ this feature to easily remove all diagnostic logs collected from a specific agent or a group of agents that are older than a certain date, or that match specific criteria, ensuring the conservation of storage space and compliance with data retention policies, without the need to navigate away from the Fleet interface or delve into Elasticsearch's Index Management.
Benefits:

• Ease of Use:
  Users can manage storage directly from Fleet, reducing the complexity involved in navigating to different parts of the Elastic Stack to delete data.

• Efficient Resource Management:
  Enables users to efficiently manage their storage resources by allowing them to promptly remove unnecessary or outdated logs.

• Compliance:
  Assists organizations in maintaining compliance with data retention policies by facilitating the easy removal of obsolete data.

• Reduced Overhead:
  Mitigates administrative overhead associated with managing storage and data lifecycle in Elasticsearch.
  Implementation Suggestions:

• Selection Criteria:
  The delete feature should allow users to specify criteria like date ranges, log sources, or log types, to identify the logs they wish to remove.

• Confirmation Prompt:
  Before final deletion, users should receive a confirmation prompt detailing the logs to be deleted to prevent accidental data loss.

• Logging & Audit Trail:
  All deletion actions should be logged to maintain an audit trail, providing visibility into which logs were deleted, by whom, and when.

• Permission Controls:
  Adequate permission controls should be put in place to ensure that only authorized users can delete logs, preventing unauthorized access and potential data loss.

The introduction of a 'Delete' button within the Fleet interface for managing diagnostic logs would enhance user experience, data management, and compliance with data retention policies, fostering efficient utilization of storage resources and reducing administrative overhead.
