Archive a dataset

DELETE/v5/datasets/{dataset_id}

Soft-delete a dataset by archiving it; the row is retained and can be restored later.

This sets the dataset’s archived_at timestamp rather than permanently removing it, and cascades the same archival to the dataset’s items and versions. Archiving is not idempotent: if the dataset is already archived the call fails. The dataset can be brought back with the PATCH restore request. The response reports the dataset id with deleted set to true.
