How do I reset the Dataverse environment?

Published in Dataverse Environment Management 1 min read

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:

  1. Navigate to the Power Platform admin center: Go to the Power Platform admin center website.
  2. Sign in: Sign in using credentials that have the Environment Admin or System Administrator role.
  3. Select Environments: From the left-side menu, select the Environments option.
  4. Choose an Environment: Select the specific environment that you wish to reset from the list.
  5. 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.
