    Hello.
    I tried to find information on the internet but to no avail.
    I use jetpack and see that in wp_option table there are many records (see image). The number of records is about 500 per day.

    https://prnt.sc/qt54kb

    I’m concerned about the records jetpack_nonce_

    Why is it obtained and how can it be cleared?

    Hi there,

    The nonce is used as part of the signature and signature verification process to ensure a secured communication via XML-RPC.

    Those entries are deleted automatically as they expire. This is done by a cron job, so as long as wp_cron is working on your site, those shouldn’t cause any problems.

    Unless you’re seeing performance issues on your site that are due to the number of those entries in the database, this is nothing to be concerned about. If there are indeed so many entries that it’s causing problems, it would indicate a problem with wp_cron on your site not deleting those entries as it’s supposed to.
