Hi,
I have a DataStore to which I recently added a new entity. It worked fine and data was getting stored properly. Problem came when I promoted the application export to higher environment. Got several errors pointing to this newly added entity and the import failed. The original export didn't create this new entity, though it created the CDT associated with this entity. Looks like I will have to manually create this new entity in the new environment and then do the import.
Is this the correct way of doing this? Any Best practices around?...

The recommendation is: Never re-create entities nor delete data stores to avoid inconsistencies. Remember that re-creating assigns new UUIDs which may not match the ones in the other environment. The only action that guarantees UUIDs remain the same is Export-then-Import.
Instead you should read the import errors carefully and review the application-server.log to take the necessary corrective actions.
