Reset a Sandbox (SIG or ODS) Instance in Control Center
If you have sufficient permissions, you can use Reset to reset an instance to a clean state. Resetting deletes all data from the database. You can reset SIG sandbox and on-demand sandbox (ODS) instances, but you can’t reset PIG instances (production, staging, and development).

- Log into Control Center.
- Click Instances.
- Search for—or navigate to—the SIG or ODS instance you want to initialize.
- Click Reset.
