        // You would typically use GFAPI::update_entry() here to save the changes.
        // However, be cautious as this hook fires *after* the entry has already been updated.
        // Re-updating might have unintended consequences or performance issues if not managed carefully.
        // For demonstration purposes, we'll just show how to construct the data.
        // If you intended to modify the entry *before* it's saved, you'd use a different hook.
        // Example of updating (use with caution):
        // GFAPI::update_entry( $updated_entry );
    }

    // You can also access other information from the entry arrays.
    // For example, get the form ID from the updated entry.
    $form_id = $updated_entry['form_id'];

    // Perform actions based on the form ID.
    if ( $form_id == 10 ) { // Example: If the updated entry is from Form ID 10
        // Do something specific for form 10
    }
}
