Remove a retired Databox dataset safely
Close old measurement loops when the cleanup decision is final.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Delete Dataset
Tool to delete a dataset by ID in Databox. Use when you need to permanently remove a dataset. This operation is irreversible.
Why this helps
Retired datasets accumulate and make it harder to find the one that matters.
- Reduce dataset clutter
- Keep workspaces easier to navigate
- Record the cleanup result
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notis and Databox once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation that deletes the dataset ID supplied in an approved request and states that the action is irreversible.
- 3Choose the Notis webhook trigger.
- 4Select a report channel for the deletion result.
- 5Send one approved test request using a disposable dataset.
Questions about this workflow
Is deletion reversible?
No. Databox dataset deletion is permanent, so only send approved IDs.
Can it delete a data source instead?
Use the separate data source deletion workflow when the entire container and its datasets must be removed.
