Active Roles 7.4.1 - Administration Guide

Delete the SaaS product user

You can use the Active Roles Web Interface to delete an existing Active Roles Starling Connect user. When the Active Roles user is deleted, then the user is deleted on the selected connected system.

Deprovision an existing Active Roles user for SaaS products

Active Roles provides the ability to deprovision SaaS product users. When an Active Roles user is deprovisioned, if the user is mapped to Starling Connect, then the user is deprovisioned from the selected connected system. This means the Active Role SaaS product user is prevented from logging on to the network and connecting to any of the connected systems through the registered connectors.

The Deprovision command on a user updates the account as prescribed by the deprovisioning policies.

Active Roles comes with a default policy to automate some commonly-used deprovisioning tasks, and allows the administrator to configure and apply additional policies.
