Last modified: March 22, 2024

1 Introduction

You can create a new app in one click and leave the app just as easily when you are not using it anymore. However, if you are thinking about leaving an app, consider carefully whether you may want to use that app later for any reason.

This how-to teaches you how to do the following: as a Scrum Master:

  • Leave an app
  • Delete an app
  • Deactivate an app

2 Prerequisites

Before you delete or deactivate an app, make sure you have completed the following prerequisites:

  • You need to have the Scrum Master role in your team (or a custom role with the App Settings permission).

3 Leaving, Deleting, or Deactivating an App

If you want to leave and delete your app, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the Developer Portal and select the app that you want to leave.

  2. In the navigation pane, select Settings.

  3. At the bottom of the General tab, click one of the following buttons:

    • Click Leave App to leave the app.
      • If you leave an app that still has team members, you will leave the app directly after clicking Leave App. The app will still exist in the company, and it will be available for other team members. If you want to return to the team, other team members can invite you to the app again.
      • If you are the only member of the team, you will get a final confirmation message. The pop-up window states the app will be permanently deleted, when you leave as the last member. Confirm leaving and deleting the app by clicking Leave and Delete App. This change cannot be reverted and will be fully deleted from your company.
    • Click Deactivate App to deactivate the app
    • Click Delete App to delete the app

4 Alternative Method

If you are the only team member of an app, you can also leave and delete the app directly from your list of apps. For more information, see My Apps.
