Remove a retired project's dataset from Databox

When a job is formally retired, use a scheduled cleanup instruction to remove its specified dataset and report the result.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Delete Dataset

Permanently deletes a Databox dataset; this action cannot be undone.

Why this helps

Old project datasets can clutter reporting workflows and make it harder to focus on current jobs.

  • Clean up a specific retired job dataset.
  • Keep the deletion request tied to a stated retirement decision.
  • Receive a record of the cleanup run.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Acculynx and Databox once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Describe the explicit retirement condition and the exact Databox dataset ID to delete.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and where run reports go.
  • 5Test the instruction against one confirmed retired dataset and review the result.

Questions about this workflow

Can the workflow decide that a job is retired from Acculynx?

No retirement trigger or status field is listed. Supply the retirement decision and dataset ID in the request context.

Can a deleted dataset be restored?

The action description says dataset deletion is permanent. Use it only when the specific dataset is confirmed for removal.
