Decrease used storage in Azure

Hello,

 

I want to reduce the storage used by an azure SQL database. I have managed to reduce the "allocated space" to below 6 GB.

Can I change the "Max storage" to 6 GB without impact on the database itself?

I can not find a definite answer online.

 

Kind Regards,

Bas

 

  • Hello all,

    I created a case with Microsoft, the response was:

    "You can confidently decrease the Max Data Size as there will be no data lost."
