deleting
Whether due to a change in business needs or for any other reason, if you need to part ways with an integrated partner, you can easily remove them from the Bombyx platform. Doing so will ensure that they no longer have access to your product data and other resources. This simple process ensures that your business remains secure and streamlined.
