Data deletion in AEP Event dataset

We have 300 records ingested via HTTP API (streaming) into an AEP event dataset for February 3rd and there are some incorrect records and we want to correct the record. As part of this initiative we want to delete the record.

What is the recommended way to delete all records for this date? Is the Batch Delete API the best approach, and are there any limitations for streaming data? Is there any streaming delete API.

Our event dataset is not upsert-enabled. Can we still delete records for a specific date (e.g., February 3rd)? If so, what methods are supported and what permissions are required?

Is it possible to delete records for a specific date directly from the AEP UI, or is the Batch Delete API the only supported method for event datasets?

What are the method that we can delete that data which are incorrect and re-ingest the correct data with the timestamp which was initially present?

 

Thanks

Hi ​@Rob you can use the record delete feature in data lifecycle and select the dataset where the incorrect events are ingested. It will ask you for identity of the customers whose event you want to delete, please note that you can’t cherry pick which events you want to delete, doing this will delete all the events in this dataset for that particular profile. You can find more info here https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/experience-platform/data-lifecycle/ui/record-delete

 

Thanks,
