MC1262315: Microsoft Dataverse – Upcoming Changes to Deleted Records Keeping and Related Storage
We identified that your environment has enabled the setting, Keep deleted Dataverse records. The ability to restore deleted records within a specified timeframe will reach general availability on April 27, 2026. Following this feature release, deleted records in your environment will be counted as part of your environment's storage capacity.
What action do I need to take?
Please routinely clean up deleted records by using the following recommendations:
- Remove deleted records by selecting the Delete all records option within the deleted records view in Power Platform admin center.
- Adjust your deleted record keeping period if 30 days is longer than required.
- Only enable the Keep deleted Dataverse records option for environments where recovery is critical.
Why is this action needed?
If no action is taken, deleted records in your environment will be counted as part of your environment's storage capacity after April 27, 2026. This may cause your environment to exceed its allotted storage capacity.
If you would like more information about this change, please visit the Microsoft Power Platform Blog post, Safeguard, Restore, and Manage Deleted Records in Microsoft Dataverse.
