Deleting or Deactivating an Application

Deactivating an application prevents users from logging in to the application. You might do this if you are making changes to an application and need to temporarily keep users out of it.

Deleting an application removes the application's details and its directory mappings. You would typically only do this if the application is no longer required.

To deactivate an application,

  1. Log in to the Crowd Administration Console.
  2. Click the 'Applications tab in the top navigation bar.
  3. This will display the Application Browser. Click the 'View' link that corresponds to the application you wish to deactivate.
  4. This will display the 'Application Details' screen. Deselect the 'Active' check-box, then click the 'Update' button. No users will now be able to log in to the application.

(info) To reactivate the application, follow the same steps but select the 'Active' check-box.

To delete an application,

  1. Log in to the Crowd Administration Console.
  2. Click the 'Applications tab in the top navigation bar.
  3. This will display the Application Browser. Click the 'View' link that corresponds to the application you wish to deactivate.
  4. This will display the 'Application Details' screen. Click 'Remove Application' in the left-hand menu.

The application will be removed from Crowd and will no longer appear in the Application Browser.

You cannot delete or deactivate the 'crowd' application (i.e. the Crowd Administration Console).
