Uninstall a Third-Party Connected App
You can uninstall a third-party connected app from your org. However, uninstalling an
app doesn’t delete the connected app. Instead it removes the OAuth policies that you set for the
app in your org. Because you’re removing the policies for apps that users can still access, you’re
actually loosening your security measures. We recommend uninstalling a connected app only when the
original developer deletes the app from their org. To make a connected app inaccessible to your
org’s users, block the app. This action ends all current user sessions with the connected app and
prevents all new sessions until you unblock the app.
