Description
Issue in ./help/hygiene/api/overview.md
This page says the Data Hygiene API allows you to "correct" personal data, but there are no examples provided of how to "correct" data in the guide or the API docs. Is this a capability of the API? I am only aware of capabilities to _delete_ datasets and records.
"The Data Hygiene API allows you to programmatically correct or delete your customers’ stored personal data in Adobe Experience Platform, as well as schedule expiration dates for datasets. "
https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/experience-platform/data-lifecycle/api/overview
The developer docs say something similar:
"Use the Data Hygiene REST API to schedule expiration dates for datasets and programmatically correct or delete stored customer personal data in Experience Platform."
https://developer.adobe.com/experience-platform-apis/references/data-hygiene/
And the home page of the guide also mentions "correcting" data:
"As data is ingested into the system over time, it becomes increasingly important to manage your data stores so that data is used as expected, is updated when incorrect data needs correcting, and is deleted when organizational policies deem it necessary.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Review help/hygiene/api/overview.md, the Data Hygiene API guide, and the linked developer API reference to determine whether “correct” is a supported capability and whether examples exist. Update the affected wording and documentation consistently so the supported operations are accurate and the guide explains the capability or removes the claim.
