HPERSIST removes the time to live from each listed field of the hash at key, so the fields no longer expire. The values are not changed.

FIELDS must come right after the key, and numfields must equal the number of field names that follow.

An array with one integer per field, in the order given, under both RESP2 and RESP3:

Code Meaning
-2 The field or the key does not exist.
-1 The field exists but had no time to live.
1 The time to live was removed.

The errors are the same as for HTTL: WRONGTYPE for a key that is not a hash, and the FIELDS / numfields errors.

127.0.0.1:6379> HSET session:9 token "abc" user "42"
(integer) 2
127.0.0.1:6379> HEXPIRE session:9 60 FIELDS 1 token
1) (integer) 1
127.0.0.1:6379> HPERSIST session:9 FIELDS 3 token user nope
1) (integer) 1
2) (integer) -1
3) (integer) -2
127.0.0.1:6379> HTTL session:9 FIELDS 1 token
1) (integer) -1

Same as Redis 7.4. Valkey 8 does not have hash field expiration.
