Let external Experience Cloud site and Chatter users deactivate their own accounts. The
results are identical to an administrator-initiated deactivation.
Required Editions
Available in: All Editions
User Permissions Needed
To enable external user deactivation option:
Customize Application
Note Deactivation is not the same as deletion. To learn more about deactivation, refer to
Salesforce documentation about deactivating users.
From Setup, enter User in the Quick Find box, then select
User Management Settings.
Enable User Self Deactivate.
Use developer or declarative tools to provide a mechanism for users to deactivate their
accounts. In Experience Cloud sites built with Aura templates, the Customizable User Settings component gives users the
option to deactivate their account.
Note In Experience Cloud sites using LWR or Visualforce templates, create a flow that external
users can run to deactivate their own accounts without the help of an admin.
