Enhancements

Retention of deleted user data

Details about deleted users are now retained and made visible within the Console where relevant. This allows you to easily search for items in your product environment associated with deleted users. For example, you can search for folders created by a user who left your company.

It's important to note that:

• Once a user has been deleted, items in your product environment can no longer be shared with them.
• Deleted users are clearly identified with a prominent Inactive label.

• Formats: original (default), JPEG, PNG, PDF.
• Quality levels: low, auto, and best (default).
