How to "remove" a key/value in a JSON object?

Ask us anything How do I?

We can reset an entire variable but not a path. (reset variable value)
We can update a path but not delete. I can set null, but that’s not the same thing. (change variable value). Setting to null will add bloat to my JSON unecessarily.

So how do I delete the key in a nested JSON object variable?

I guess this is custom javscript but I can’t figure it out :frowning:

I had to play around with it to target the nested children, but figured it out like this:
