|
||||
|
||||
## Limitations
|
||||
|
||||
The current Admin UI user management feature has the following limitations:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Role modification**: User roles cannot be changed after invitation acceptance. Contact support to modify roles.
|
||||
- **User deletion**: Users cannot be removed from accounts through the UI. Contact support for user removal.
|
||||
- **Post-acceptance management**: After a user accepts an invitation, their role details are not visible in the UI.
|
||||
|
||||
### Alternative management methods
|
||||
|
||||
For operations not available in the Admin UI:
|
||||
|
||||
- **influxctl CLI**: Use the [`influxctl user list`](/influxdb3/cloud-dedicated/reference/cli/influxctl/user/list/) command to view comprehensive user information
|
||||
- **Support requests**: Contact [InfluxData support](https://support.influxdata.com) for role changes, user removal, or other advanced user management tasks
|
||||

The Admin UI provides essential self-service capabilities for day-to-day user management while InfluxData continues to expand functionality in future releases.
