Retire an unused Databox source
Close out old reporting infrastructure with a clear, deliberate request.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Delete Data Source
Tool to delete a data source by ID in Databox. Use when you need to permanently remove a data source. This operation is irreversible and will delete all associated datasets.
Why this helps
Unused sources clutter reporting environments and make active destinations harder to identify.
- Keep reporting environments tidy
- Remove obsolete containers
- Create an auditable retirement step
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Todoist and Databox in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation that deletes the supplied Databox data source only after the request confirms it is retired.
- 3Choose a Notis webhook trigger.
- 4Select a report channel for the deletion result.
- 5Test with a nonproduction source ID and review the response.
Questions about this workflow
What happens to datasets in the source?
Deleting a data source also deletes its associated datasets, so confirm the source is no longer needed before calling it.
Can this be undone?
