Have you looked at durable functions? https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-functions/durable/durable-functions-error-handling?tabs=csharp

Any exceptions are marshaled back to to the orchestrator so you will need to catch and handle each type for failure and "roll back" the completed actions yourself.

There is the idea of a transaction in Dynamics, https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/developer/data-platform/org-service/use-executetransaction

It will roll back ONLY what occurred during that transaction and ONLY in Dynamics. Its not really recommended, generally MS recommends that we send each request to the API as single requests, and a ExecuteTransaction Request locks the records in the transaction, so likely to have performance impact.
