Delete user (internal/domain)
Users
Delete User
Syteca ACB REST API endpoint to delete a Syteca user — for offboarding, contractor cleanup, and IdP-driven deprovisioning.
DELETE
Delete user (internal/domain)
Deletes a Syteca user. For domain users, this removes only the Syteca link — the AD account itself is unaffected. For Internal users, this permanently removes the user from Syteca.
For ACB deployments updated from a version prior to 1.2, switch to the
https://{hostname}/EkranACB server in the Playground.Permissions required
The Access Token must be issued to a user with the administrative User Management permission.Common use cases
- Offboarding automation — HRIS termination triggers user deletion in Syteca.
- Contractor cleanup — Auto-delete contractor accounts after engagement end-date.
- IdP deprovisioning — Okta / Azure AD removes the user → webhook calls this endpoint.
Historical session data is preserved
Deleting a user does not delete their historical session recordings or audit log entries. Their user name remains visible in session metadata for compliance retention; only the user account itself (permissions, group memberships, login capability) is removed.Errors
See Status codes. Common errors:- 403 Forbidden — user lacks administrative User Management permission, or the request would delete the last user with User Management permission (preventing lockout).
- 404 Not Found — user doesn’t exist.
