Delete a User
You can only delete accounts that are not associated with a card. The User screen indicates users that have previously logged into CloudStream. If you prefer to Delete user accounts, you can select one or more accounts, and then click [Delete] to remove the accounts.
If the user is associated with a card, a warning message indicates that the user cannot be deleted. You must un-assign the card from the user account before you can proceed.
A confirmation message will prompt you to confirm the deletion. The users are not fully deleted until purged, but they are hidden from Groups/Departments screens.
Purge or Restore Users
To view a list of all previously Deleted users, click [View Deleted]. From this screen, you can select one or more users and either [Restore] the accounts, or [Purge] them entirely from CloudStream.
If a user has not been purged, you can click [Restore] to re-enable their access.
If you proceed to purge, the user name will continue to appear in CloudStream with two exceptions:
-
Generated reports that include configurable fields such as User ID and User Name will display these fields as Unknown.
-
The Print Job Activity dashboard will list "Unknown" instead of the User Name.
Purged users cannot login to CloudStream. However, note that if the user account still exists in LDAP or Entra ID, the user can login again to be added as a new user.
