Retire expired Databox datasets on schedule

Keep your reporting workspace focused as campaigns end.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

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

Cleanup gets postponed until old datasets become a navigation burden.

  • Keep old campaigns from piling up
  • Create a predictable cleanup rhythm
  • Maintain an audit trail in reports

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notis and Databox once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation that deletes the approved dataset IDs supplied for retirement and calls out the irreversible action.
  • 3Choose a Notis cron trigger after your review deadline.
  • 4Pick where cleanup results should go.
  • 5Test with one disposable dataset before enabling the schedule.

Questions about this workflow

How are datasets approved?

Maintain the approved ID list in your process and supply it to the automation.

Can this preserve a backup?

The delete action does not create a backup, so archive anything required before running it.
