-# Activating and deactivating users
+This document was moved to [another location](moderate_users.md).
-GitLab administrators can deactivate and activate users.
-
-## Deactivating a user
-
-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/22257) in GitLab 12.4.
-
-In order to temporarily prevent access by a GitLab user that has no recent activity, administrators
-can choose to deactivate the user.
-
-Deactivating a user is functionally identical to [blocking a user](blocking_unblocking_users.md),
-with the following differences:
-
-- It does not prohibit the user from logging back in via the UI.
-- Once a deactivated user logs back into the GitLab UI, their account is set to active.
-
-A deactivated user:
-
-- Cannot access Git repositories or the API.
-- Will not receive any notifications from GitLab.
-- Will not be able to use [slash commands](../../integration/slash_commands.md).
-
-Personal projects, and group and user history of the deactivated user will be left intact.
-
-A user can be deactivated from the Admin Area. To do this:
-
-1. Navigate to **Admin Area > Overview > Users**.
-1. Select a user.
-1. Under the **Account** tab, click **Deactivate user**.
-
-Please note that for the deactivation option to be visible to an admin, the user:
-
-- Must be currently active.
-- Must not have signed in, or have any activity, in the last 90 days.
-
-Users can also be deactivated using the [GitLab API](../../api/users.md#deactivate-user).
-
-NOTE:
-A deactivated user does not consume a [seat](../../subscriptions/self_managed/index.md#billable-users).
-
-## Activating a user

-
-To do this:

-1. Under the **Account** tab, click **Activate user**.
-
-Users can also be activated using the [GitLab API](../../api/users.md#activate-user).
-
-NOTE:
-Activating a user changes the user's state to active and consumes a
-[seat](../../subscriptions/self_managed/index.md#billable-users).
-
-NOTE:
-A deactivated user can also activate their account themselves by logging back in via the UI.
