Gurus,

I am able to set my globals using

> system.util.getGlobals()['key'] = "VALUE"

but i am unsure how to clear "key" from that dictionary.

Can anyone guide me please.

The return value of `system.util.getGlobals()` is just a regular Python dictionary. Use whatever method you want to remove a key just like in regular Python, e.g. `system.util.getGlobals().pop("key")`.
