Hello everyone, does anyone know how to move a dataset from one dataverse to another? i believe there is a simple way to do it but i can not see it.

Assuming you mean from one collection (dataverse) to another in the same Dataverse repository:
There are two ways a command line:

And on the superuser Dashboard:

Thank you Sherry Lake for your guidance, i totally forgot about the option of dashboard. Also do you have any experience with sharing one dataset between two dataverses?

I think "linking" datasets is what you mean by "sharing"?
A dataset must have a primary "home", but if you link it to another dataverse (collection), then that dataset will show up in both collections when displaying dataverse (collection) datasets.
