If your IoT application has been delayed, needs to be paused or unfortunately it has come to an end, Pausing or Deleting your account will stop further usage and associated costs.

The difference between Pausing and Deleting your account is that by Pausing it will allow you to store all of your data and configurations within the platform (i.e., Dashboards, Widgets, Events, UbiFunctions, etc.) and have the ability to reactivate it. In contrast, Deleting your account, well, it simply erases all of your Data and account settings.

    NOTE: If you choose the option “Other” please make sure to hit the check mark at the right before clicking “OK”

Now that you’ve Paused your account, you won’t be billed anymore until you Reactivate your account.
NOTE: Your data will be stored according to your account (2 years for paid licenses, 1 month for STEM, or custom data retention periods)

To reactivate you account, simply login and click the Activate button.
