Limit which accounts types users can create and use
You can limit the account types users see in the following circumstances:
-
When creating new accounts.
-
When choosing which accounts to use when exporting files using Data Feeds, exporting reports using Data Warehouse, or importing schemas using Classification sets.
When you limit account types as described in this section, any accounts of the type that you limit are no longer visible to users. This means that new accounts of that type cannot be created, and existing accounts of that type cannot be used when creating Data Feeds, Data Warehouse, or Classification sets.
However, existing accounts that are configured for scheduled exports must be deleted if you want to restrict them from being used.
Ensure that accounts are not used for scheduled exports
When you limit account types, existing accounts are hidden, not deleted.
If schedules are already configured to send data to an account that is of the type that you limit, the schedules will continue to run even after you limit the account type, and data will continue to be sent to the account. For example, if a Data Feed is scheduled to send data to an account type that you limit, the schedule will continue to run.
If you need to ensure that accounts of a certain type are not used in scheduled exports, you can delete the accounts before you limit the account types.
To delete accounts:
-
Locate the accounts of the account type you plan to limit, which are being used for scheduled exports.
-
Delete the accounts, as described in Delete an account.
-
Continue with the following section, Limit the account types that are available to users.
Limit the account types that are available to users
