Can I delete my admin user in the Panther Console?

QUESTION

Can I delete my admin user in Panther? Does Panther allow me to delete my last admin if I already have an admin managed by SAML? 

ANSWER

It is a Panther requirement that you must always have at least one admin user in the Panther Console. This helps prevent a scenario where users are locked out due to SAML misconfigurations. In that case, the admin user could log in to Panther Console directly with a username and password to remedy the issue.

Only a user with the Admin role can delete other users with the Admin role; self-deletions are not supported.

Note: Deleting an admin user will not delete any content they have created. For more information, see our article on user deletion in Panther: 📄 If I delete a user in Panther, does it delete content they created?
