- Observed behavior

Contact Microsoft Clarity Support Directly
Since missing historical data and dashboard loading failures are backend server issues, they must be resolved by the official Microsoft Clarity support team.
This specific data retention issue falls outside the standard troubleshooting scope of the Microsoft Community. Because Clarity relies on Microsoft's cloud servers to process and store heatmaps and recordings, any missing data beyond a specific timeframe requires an internal investigation by their engineers.
Launch the email client associated with your Microsoft Clarity account.
Create a new email addressed to the official support channel at clarityMS@microsoft.com.
Include your website URL, your Clarity Project ID, and a clear description stating that heatmaps and recordings are blank or failing to load beyond the last seven days.
Send your request and wait for the support team to investigate the syncing or retention error on your account.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is Microsoft Clarity only showing 7 days of data?
This usually happens due to a backend synchronization glitch or temporary server outage on Microsoft's end, preventing older data from rendering on your dashboard. It requires official support intervention to restore.
How long does Microsoft Clarity normally retain data?
By default, Microsoft Clarity retains standard session recordings and heatmap data for 30 days. Labeled or favorited recordings can be kept for up to 13 months.
Can I fix missing Clarity recordings by reinstalling the tracking script?
No. If data from the past 7 days is showing correctly, your tracking script is working fine. Missing historical data is a server-side issue that reinstalling the script will not fix.
Where do I report Microsoft Clarity bugs?
For technical bugs like missing historical analytics or failing heatmaps, you should email clarityMS@microsoft.com directly, as these issues are beyond the scope of community forums.
