Overview

Deactivate a user if you need to temporarily restrict someone from accessing their Wrike account. When you deactivate a user they'll be logged out of the Workspace (on any browser/device where they're logged in) and they won't be able to log in to their account again until you reactivate them. When you do reactivate someone, they're immediately able to log in to their Workspace again.

Important Information

• Account owners cannot be deactivated.
• If someone is a member of multiple Wrike accounts they can't be deactivated.

Who Can Deactivate a User

Deactivate a User

4. Click the name or profile image of the user you want to deactivate.
5. Click “Deactivate user” in the panel that appears.
