Disabling a member's Account

Disabling a member's Account

Feature availability


Overview  

When a user is no longer working with you, you will want to remove their access to your Zoho Connect network. In such cases, you can disable their account to prevent them from signing in to the network while keeping their existing posts, comments, and integrations intact.

Members in Zoho Connect are also part of your Zoho organization, which may include other applications such as Zoho Mail, Zoho Forms, and Zoho Projects. Since deleting a user will affect their access across all these applications, you can avoid this by disabling the user only in Zoho Connect network.

Info

Disabling a user restricts access only to Zoho Connect. Their access to other Zoho applications remains unchanged.

 

Limitations on disabling users  

  • Admins cannot disable a user if the network is on a bundle plan (Zoho One, Zoho Workplace, and People Plus.
  • Even on a standalone plan, admins cannot disable a user if the network is integrated with Zoho People.
Notes

Disabling a member account is different from deleting an external user. Refer to the relevant document for more details.

Warning

To permanently delete a user from your Zoho organization and revoke access across all Zoho apps, contact support@zohoaccounts.com.
