Hello

Is it possible to disable the database created which is enabled while creating the environments?

We generally enable while creating the new environments and now we are nowhere using the dataverse and we want to disable this to increase the capacity of our tenant.

So we want to know is there a way to disable the database for the environments?

    Hello, @Neel_2303, There is no way to disable this option on the tenant level. What you can do, and it is a best practice is restrict environment creation and management to admins. When you do that, your admin can make sure that when they create new environments to not include a database for them.

    Hello @AhmedSalih ,

    Thanks for your quick response.

    I wanted to know like if we can remove for the existing environments which I have already created? (Any chance using the power shell also works). It would be great if I can do that.

    @Neel_2303, I did some research and you won't be able to only delete the Dataverse from an existing environment. When you provision an environment with database, that database is a core component of the environment.
