How to Delete a Profile in Adobe RTCDP?

Question

Hi Community,I’m looking for guidance on how to properly delete a profile in Adobe Real-Time CDP (RTCDP).If I delete a dataset that contributes to profile stitching and profile usage, will that automatically remove the associated profiles from RTCDP?Is it recommended to use the Profile API to delete individual profiles instead?For context, I have already paused the Azure pipelines/workflows in Adobe Experience Platform that were contributing to the dataset I plan to delete.Would appreciate any best practices or insights on how to ensure the profiles are fully removed and not just the dataset.

1. No, deleting a dataset does not automatically delete the associated profiles in Adobe RTCDP. It only removes the records in that specific dataset. If other datasets or identity links are contributing to the profile, it will remain in RTCDP. 2. Yes, you can use Profile Service API to delete profiles by their unique identifiers (e.g., UserID or ECID).
