Delete Aras Innovator from SIT Environment

The SIT environment provides resources for a maximum of ten Aras Innovator test instances. Aras recommends keeping the number of test instances at about three to five. The project team should retain the latest test instances while removing older ones to prevent potential performance degradation. The DeleteInnovator Pipeline deletes test instances by providing the instance name (lowercase) and identifying the Build.

After approximately thirty days, the system will automatically delete a Build.

The following steps outline the process of deleting the Aras Innovator from SIT Environment:

1. Navigate to https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}.
