new update: check your flows on corruption because of adding a key field!!!

With the delete flow card you can delete texts from your dashboard.

As an example:
washing machine is ready.
And you have a button on the washing machine to indicate that it has been emptied.
Then the text can be deleted from the dashboard with the button and a flow.

In the send text to dashboard card you enter the text and a unique key. In the delete flow you also add this unique key to delete it.
