Short answer

How can I offboard users using my AI?

You can find specific user details and remove them entirely by telling your AI client what to do. This process covers everything from locating a profile to deleting the identity. You'll see the specific steps and commands below.

Offboarding outcomes

What you get

These are the results of your commands.

IDENTITY

User removal

The AI uses the delete_user tool to wipe the identity from the system. This ensures the user no longer exists in your directory.

ACCESS

Session revocation

Active tokens are invalidated immediately. This stops any ongoing or future access attempts from that specific identity.

AUDIT

Profile verification

You can pull up exact user data to confirm you are targeting the right person before taking any destructive action.

HUMAN

Manual review

You decide when to pull the trigger. The AI identifies the target and prepares the action, but you maintain final control over the deletion.

The workflow

What your AI does when the offboarding request arrives.

The AI handles the heavy lifting of navigating the identity directory so you don't have to.

  1. Locate the user

    The AI searches your Ping Identity directory to find the specific person you want to offboard.

    get_user

  2. Confirm identity details

    It pulls the relevant profile information to ensure the user ID and attributes match your request.

    get_user

  3. Execute removal

    Once you confirm, the AI triggers the command to purge the user from the system.

    delete_user

  4. Verify deletion

    The AI checks the directory again to ensure the user is gone and the access is revoked.

    get_user
