Iphone Master Reset

I want to erase all the data from my old iphone in order to sell it. How to perform Factory reset? And if I do the factory reset does it affect my iCloud data? I want to reset my iPhone without losing iCloud data.

iPhone X, iOS 14

Open Settings ➔ General ➔ Reset ➔ Erase All Content & Settings : This will sign you out of Find My, Apple ID and iCloud and erase your iPhone and set it back to factory settings. You will NOT lose your iCloud data. You can later use the backup that you have on iCloud to restore from on another device.
