# Remove a person's account-wide access

> Afterwards they reach exactly the organisations in `organisationIds` and nothing else. Idempotent, and the same bar as granting it: only somebody who holds account-wide access may remove it (403 `whole_customer_access_denied` otherwise).

400 `user_access_would_be_empty` when it would leave them reaching nothing at all — grant them an organisation first, or have the account owner remove them with `DELETE /users/{principalId}`. 409 `cannot_remove_own_last_access` when it is your own last access; ask another administrator.

    Manage your Flow Payroll account: the organisations it owns, the people who
    can sign in to it, the API tokens it holds, its brand, and a feed of recent
    administration activity. Every resource is scoped to the account your
    credentials belong to, so no request ever names a customer and the
    `X-Org-Id` header is not used.
