Delete seats

The delete seat function removes the seat from your account and rejects all active enrollments for that seat. If the seat is currently consumed, a seat of that same type gets released back into your account's license pool. Depending on the seat type, any associated certificates may also be revoked.

Before you begin, make sure you understand the various seat management functions in DigiCert​​®​​ Trust Lifecycle Manager and when they're used.
