Deactivate a data source

You can deactivate a data source so that you can maintain the present data in the workspace, but stop future data from being acquired.

Considerations

  • Deactivating a data source does not remove the existing data from a workspace. A deactivated data source does not capture any new data into the workspace.

  • Once you deactivate a data source, the action cannot be undone.

  • Data sources associated with a closed workspace cannot be deactivated.

  • After deactivating a data source, you will not be able to edit data source details.

  • After you deactivate a data source, it is no longer displayed on the data source card on the workspace Overview page.

    The Data Source page displays inactive data sources. To view only deactivated data sources in the list, select the Inactive filter on the Data Source page.

  • If a deactivated data source contains zero documents, it is not shown on the document list.
