I am going to copy down Prod to UAT (including all data and customizations), what do I need to do in UAT so that emails wont be sent to users?  
 
I still want the workflows/flows to run so that it shows up in the timeline of the record, I just don't want the end users to get the email from the UAT environment.
 
Thank you.

    Hi,
     
    Your request to migrate a Prod database to a UAT database is supported.
     
    According to Microsoft's official documentation, when you refresh a database in a UAT environment using Prod environment data, certain elements in the database are not copied to the target environment during the refresh operation. One of these elements is the e-mail addresses in the /LogisticsElectronicAddress / table. Based on this information we guess that after the refresh operation, the e-mail addresses in the production environment will not appear in the UAT environment and no e-mails will be sent to the users.

     
    In addition, the documentation mentions that it is also possible to disable the SMTP relay server in the /SysEmailParameters/ table to prevent e-mail from being sent from the UAT environment.
     
    If you need more information on "Refreshing the Database", please refer to the documentation at the link below.

    I hope my answer is helpful to you! If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact me.
     
    Best Regards,
    Rudy Zhang

    D365 consists of many applications, such as Finance & Operations, Sales or Business Central. You're asking in D365 general forum, therefore it's not clear which product you have in mind. Please add this information.
