Schema Changes

The Schema Change tool allows you to modify a populated model's metadata. Operations performed here can affect elements across the entire model. For example, if you delete an entity type, every instance of that entity type in the model will be deleted and could result in a loss of data.

When you make a schema change, a job will run in the background while the model is updated. You can view the details and status of that job by clicking the Model Management Jobs tab.
