What happens to shared records

  • Past team conversation transcripts remain in History after disabling or removal.
  • The responder attribution on older conversations is preserved.
  • Knowledge-base ownership is transferred or otherwise resolved so shared resources are not orphaned.
  • Deactivating Stand-in coverage changes eligibility for new AI conversations; it does not erase historical conversations.
03

Choose disable or remove

Disable is reversible and appropriate for leave, investigation, or temporary access suspension. Remove is the permanent offboarding path. Stand-in coverage is independent: an active person can remain able to answer human chats while their Stand-in coverage is inactive.

04

Confirmation and immediate effect

  • Ownership transfer and removal open an explicit confirmation dialog naming the affected person.
  • Disabled members are signed out and receive guidance to contact the owner.
  • New authorization checks use the changed status immediately rather than waiting for a later billing period.
  • The owner cannot run these row actions against themselves; self-deletion follows the account deletion rules.
05

Boundaries

  • Access controls do not delete retained customer conversations.
  • Stand-in enablement does not override site routing or plan quota.
  • A disabled member cannot re-enable themselves.
  • Removing a member is not the same as deleting the whole organization.
