Deleting an Identity Provider

Delete an identity provider (IdP) for an identity domain in IAM.

Remove an IdP from all policies before deactivating or deleting an IdP.
Note

Deleting a social IdP removes the user profiles that are linked to that IdP. Consider deactivating a social IdP (which doesn't remove the user profiles) rather than deleting it, so that users can still see the accounts in My profile but can't use them to sign in.
  1. On the Domains list page, select the domain in which you want to make changes. If you need help finding the list page for the domain, see Listing Identity Domains.
  2. On the details page, depending on the options you see, do one of the following:
    • select Federation, or
    • select Security and then select Identity providers. A list of identity providers in the domain is displayed.
  3. Select the name of the IdP that you want to delete.
  4. Select More actions, and then select Delete IdP.
  5. To confirm the deletion, select Delete IdP.
