Telegraf Controller is in Public Beta
Telegraf Controller is in public beta and will be part of the future Telegraf Enterprise offering. While in beta, Telegraf Controller is not meant for production use. The Telegraf Controller documentation is a work in progress, and we are actively working to improve it. If you have any questions or suggestions, please submit an issue. We welcome any and all contributions.
Deleting a user cannot be undone
Deleting a user is permanent and cannot be undone. All of the user’s API tokens are also deleted.
What deletion removes
When you delete a user from Telegraf Controller, the following are permanently removed:
- User account and credentials
- All API tokens owned by the user
- All active sessions
Delete a user
- In the Telegraf Controller UI, navigate to Users and click the user you want to delete to open their detail page.
- Click Delete User.
- In the confirmation dialog, confirm the deletion.
The user is immediately removed and can no longer authenticate with Telegraf Controller.
Restrictions
- You cannot delete your own account.
- You cannot delete the owner — you must transfer ownership first.
- Only the owner can delete administrator accounts.
If you’re unsure whether to delete a user, consider disabling them first. Disabled accounts can be re-enabled later.
