> NOTE
> 
> You can leave the account only if that account has more than one user with an **Account Administrator** role.
- **Delete account:**You can delete an account if it is no longer needed or contains inappropriate data.

> [!NOTE]
> NOTE
> 
> - After the account is deleted, a confirmation message "**Account deleted successfully**" is displayed.
> - Before deleting the account, ensure that all active objects, such as groups, connections, and security objects, are removed. If any active objects remain, the deletion will fail, and the account will be deactivated instead. In that case, you can delete the remaining objects from the deactivated account and then proceed to delete the account.
> - When an account is deleted, it is first deactivated. This action is irreversible. During the deactivation or deletion process, you will not be able to create or update accounts, users, groups, group memberships, client applications (apps), or security objects within the account. You will only be able to view and delete user accounts, groups, client apps, and group membership details.
