When you remove someone from the Dialpad app via Okta, the user will be suspended in Dialpad and no longer use a user license. While the user won't appear in your team list, you can still search for the user and verify their status is *Suspended*. When you delete a user from Okta, the user is suspended from Dialpad, but they remain searchable. ### Can I change a number or extension in OKTA SCIM? No, these changes need to be made on our Admin portal. Check out our [Number Assignment articles](https://help.dialpad.com/docs/number-management) for more details.
