Delete Key

Delete a Key and associated Value from a record

The Delete Key action deletes a key and its associated value from a record. When applied to your processing rule, the Delete Keys action will remove the specified key and its value from every record it appears in your pipeline.

For example, given the following sample website log data.

{"timestamp":"2023-03-28T09:08:42.643343109Z","user_id":4,"page_id":10,"action":"purchase"}
{"timestamp":"2023-03-28T09:08:48.643600498Z","user_id":1,"page_id":50,"action":"click"}
