Posted on by jeffwllmstaste

I just installed the Nonprofit Accelerator. During the install I did not check the box to include sample data. However, after the install i have some sample data. Before the install, I had not used dataverse for anything so there was no data. Is there any way to delete the sample data in bulk?

Hi jeffwllmstaste

Thanks for reaching out.

I have verified with our PM team, and they shared as below steps

I have attached a zip file with two Powershell scripts and a data.xml file which contains the Nonprofit Accelerator sample data. The scripts in this zip file can be used to remove the sample data.

A pre-requisite for running these script is that we install a Powershell library for Dynamics CRM from here: https://github.com/seanmcne/Microsoft.Xrm.Data.PowerShell . Please follow the instructions to install this.

Once we have the Powershell Dynamics library installed, the scripts can be executed as follows in a Powershell command prompt:

If you have Fundraising and Engagement installed in the same environment, then need to disable the FundraisingandEngagement plugin by executing :

    .\disable-plugin.ps1

Then remove the sample data by executing:

    .\delete-sample-data.ps1 <path-to-data.xml>

Finally, After the deleting the sample data, please restore the FundraisingandEngagement plugin:

    .\disable-plugin.ps1 -disable $false

Note: Please take a system backup before running the scripts.
