Delete a user
This page documents an earlier version of InfluxDB OSS. InfluxDB 3 Core is the latest stable version.
Use the InfluxDB user interface (UI) or the influx command line interface (CLI)
to delete a user.
Deleting a user removes them completely from InfluxDB. To remove a user from an organization without deleting the user entirely, see Remove a member from an organization.
Delete a user from the InfluxDB UI
Users cannot be deleted from the InfluxDB UI.

to delete a user. Provide the following:
- An operator token using your
influxCLI connection configuration,INFLUX_TOKENenvironment variable, or the--token, -tflag. - The user ID (provided in the output of
influx user list)
influx user delete --id USER_ID
Replace USER_ID with
the ID of the user to delete.
