Removing Members

​
Slack Sync

Tightknit respects the membership status of users in Slack and mirrors user-level privacy changes to maintain GDPR/CCPA compliance. When a user is deactivated in Slack, their profile is also deactivated in Tightknit. When a user is reactivated in Slack, their profile is also reactivated in Tightknit. When a user is permanently deleted from Slack (aka “forgotten”), their personal information is permanently wiped and replaced with placeholder data. Their message history will still be visible under an anonymized user. Tightknit performs a similar anonymization process and wipes the personal data for deleted users.

Tightknit API

You can directly remove members of your Tightknit community using the Remove Member API (coming soon!). Note that this has no effect on the Slack user within the Slack workspace and only affects Tightknit’s view of your community. The removed user will no longer have the ability to participate in Tightknit-specific features.
