Notes

  • Removing a user from a role does not delete the user account
  • Users may still have access to resources through other roles or direct resource assignments
  • Active sessions from this user will continue until they expire
  • This operation takes effect immediately for new sessions
  • If the user loses access to all resources, they will not be able to start new sessions
