Quick Way to Delete all content

Hi all - We need to delete all of the content in our Dev environment. We will then copy over all the content from our Prod environment so they are more in sync with each other from a content perspective. Does anyone have a suggestion as to a quick way to delete all the content? Thanks for your help!

Barry,

I agree with Arthur but just in case you still need to delete bulk assets from Collibra domain, you can create a custom workflow at domain level and use the core API to delete the assets in bulk.

You can mention in the start form what asset types you want to delete and can use that as a filter criteria to fetch all the assets under the domain and delete them in a batch manner

Regards,
Akash

Well, why not just restore your prod backup onto the dev environment?
Restore a backup (collibra.com)

This will permanently delete your dev environment and replace with an exact copy of prod.

Thanks Arthur ! For some reason we were under the impression that the metadata content was separate from the actual Collibra configuration when it came to this stuff - but what you are saying makes more sense. Appreciate your insights !
