Hello,

How to remove users in forestadmin ? I thought i remove them because they were within a team that i removed. But we still have 6 users.

- Project name: find-a-resource
- Team name: Decode advertising
- Environment name: Staging

Hello @Joel_Alexandre_Khang,

Thanks for your message.

You’re right, deleting a team doesn’t remove the users belonging to it.  
You need to go to the user tab (in the projects settings) and delete the ones you want there.

Let me know if that helps!  
Thanks.

@Joel_Alexandre_Khang that’s very strange indeed!

We’ll check this out very quick and we’ll get back to you asap.

Hey @Joel_Alexandre_Khang !  
On Forest users must have at least one team. We don’t currently have a failsafe on the team deletion to avoid this error.  
Can you create a new team, we will manualy add the users to it, and then you’ll be able to delete them from the user tab.  
We will work on fixing this issue with team deletion soon!

Plese let me know the mails of the users and the name of team you are gonna create.

Hey @anon94532230 I just create a new team called UsersToRemove.  
Let me mention that i tried to remove user from the user tab but it didn’t work. I had to create another team, affect user to that team and when deleting the team, users was removed from the user tabs but still in the billing details as showed previously.

Delete the users from the user tab, it should properly delete them 🙂

As the message says, the user is owner of the organization your project belongs to. You need to go you organization settings and remove him as owner.

It looks like you are not owner of the organisation. It’s normal that you can’t access its settings, ask one of the other owners to add you as owner.
