Resetting your Dataverse environment is a process performed through the Power Platform admin center, requiring specific administrative privileges.
To reset a Dataverse environment, follow these steps:
- Navigate to the Power Platform admin center: Go to the Power Platform admin center website.
- Sign in: Sign in using credentials that have the Environment Admin or System Administrator role.
- Select Environments: From the left-side menu, select the Environments option.
- Choose an Environment: Select the specific environment that you wish to reset from the list.
- Initiate Reset: Select Reset from the top menu bar for the chosen environment.
This process allows administrators to return a Dataverse environment to a clean state, typically used for development, testing, or cleaning up unused environments. Always ensure you have appropriate backups or that the data in the environment is not critical before performing a reset, as this action will permanently delete the existing data and configurations within that environment.
