   • Configure the required input arguments:
     • Document Id: Specify the document ID of the dataset.
     • Parameter Definition Id: Specify the parameter definition ID of the dataset.
     • Key Value: Provide the key value of the record to be deleted.
2. Execution:
   • The activity executes asynchronously, deleting the specified record from the dataset based on its key value.
   • It uses the configured API context to perform the deletion via the dataset client.
3. Output:
   • The activity returns aList<CustomDataSetRecord>, which may represent the remaining records in the dataset or provide information related to the operation, depending on the implementation.

Considerations

• Data Integrity: Ensure that the document ID, parameter definition ID, and key value are valid and correctly specified to avoid errors during the deletion process.
• Permanent Deletion: Be aware that deleting a dataset record is usually irreversible. Confirm the action before proceeding.
• Permissions: Verify that the necessary permissions are in place for the user or application performing the deletion to prevent unauthorized actions.
• Error Handling: Implement error handling to manage potential issues such as network connectivity problems or invalid input data.
