I had issues with trying to delete a returned JSON object and found that it was actually a string. If you JSON.parse() before deleting you can be sure your key will get deleted.

let obj;
console.log(this.getBody()); // {"AED":3.6729,"AZN":1.69805,"BRL":4.0851}
obj = this.getBody();
delete obj["BRL"];
console.log(obj) // {"AED":3.6729,"AZN":1.69805,"BRL":4.0851}
obj = JSON.parse(this.getBody());
delete obj["BRL"];
console.log(obj) // {"AED":3.6729,"AZN":1.69805}
