User Types

At the subscription level, users are in one of these states:

  • Enabled user has an active login account in one or more vaults.
  • Disabled user has an inactive login account in one or more vaults. The login account can be enabled.
  • Detached user ID is a user account that is associated with a vault but is not linked to any login account. In general, M-Files does not recommend user accounts to be deleted. And even in this case, the user ID remains. Disabling accounts removes access but preserves the audit history of the vault activity.

You can see a list of the users by user type on the Users page:
