cdmtmp_ Entities After Update

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hello, After completing an update to the new model, a large number of duplicate entites have been created with "cdmtmp_" prefixed to them, some also have "cdm_" prefixed. Is this normal?

I have the same question (0)

    Hi @Anonymous ,

     

    To use the new capabilities in CDS for Apps, existing users on the previous version of Common Data Service can upgrade to the latest CDS for Apps using one of the following options:
    Upgrade your previous version of CDS to CDS for Apps.
    Delete your previous version CDS database, then create a new CDS for Apps database in the existing environment.
    Do nothing

     

    Did you choose the 2nd option and didn't delete your previous version Common Data Service database? If you don't have any important data in the previous version CDS database, you can simply delete it and then add a new CDS for Apps database.

    Hello!

     

    Can the database be deleted without deleting the environment Flows and Apps?

    Hi @Anonymous ,

     

    I think this is not possible so far. 

    Please try to add an idea in PowerApps idea forum if you need this:
