Action
Delete Data Source

Why this helps
Old data sources remain active after a project has been formally closed.
- Reduce stale source containers
- Lower cleanup overhead
- Prevent accidental reuse of retired sources

- 3Tell Notis to find the linked Databox source and delete it only after checking your stated safety condition.
- 4Choose the Coda document deleted trigger and a report destination.
- 5Test with a noncritical source and inspect the report.
Questions about this workflow
What does source deletion also remove?
