Deleting users
When a user account is deleted, changes happen to the tasks, plans, and remote engines related to this account.
Information noteImportant: Before deleting a user account, ensure that all assets owned by that
user, such as data preparations and datasets, are transferred or shared with another user.
If this is not done, these assets may become inaccessible or unrecoverable after deletion.
For example, user firstname.lastname@company.com owns several data preparations and datasets. Before deleting this account, ensure that these assets are shared with a new user firstname.lastname@us.company.com. This allows the new account to access and work with the same data preparations after the original account is deleted. For instructions specific to data preparations, see Sharing a preparation.
- Personal workspaces: anything in the Personal workspace of the deleted user account is removed, as this workspace is automatically removed with this account.
- Custom workspaces: a Custom workspace to which the deleted user account was assigned as owner remains; so the objects in this workspace are still available.
- Shared workspace: this workspace, as well as the objects in it, remains.
- Remote Engines: a Remote Engine remains. If this engine was assigned to the personal workspace of the deleted user account, it is automatically unassigned from that personal workspace.
