Deactivating a Bamboo user

Deactivate a Bamboo user account (rather than deleting it), requires you to change the password so that the user cannot login.

To deactivate a Bamboo user:

  1. Choose Administration, and then Users in the left navigation panel.
  2. Click Edit for the user to be deactivated.
  3. Enter a new password for the user.
    (info) If you have configured SMTP email on your Bamboo server, the user will automatically receive an email containing their new password.
  4. To get around the email problem, enter an invalid email address in the Email field, for example foobar@fooobaremailaddress.foobar.
  5. Delete the user's Instant Messaging Address so that he or she does not receive notifications on build events.
  6. Click Save.
