I need to clone an instance to a dev environment but I need all the data in PROD removed. Is this possible?

You can use exclusion list where you can add tables whose data should not get cloned.

Hi @Jsadler19 ,

You can exclude tables(not extended from task) from cloning if you don't want the data. However, as per your requirement that's not recommended or advisable at all to do. You don't wanna remove all the data from PROD.

Mark my answer correct & Helpful, if Applicable.

Thanks,
