Can't delete Entity

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Please say there is a way to delete an entity without deleting all of it's dependencies...after deleting their dependencies...and thier dependencies....

 

It's easier to provision a postgress server and have it up an running than dealing with this data service.  I've litterly been trying to delete tow entities off and on for the last three days! Joke!

    Hi @Anonymous ,

    If you want to delete the entity, you need to lift all the relationship with the entity.

    Not only the reletionship between entities, but also the app that use this entity.

    Here are some similar issues for your reference:

    Here's a doc about it too:
