This action is permanent and cannot be undone. Make sure no active squids are using this account before deletion.
Use Get Account Details first to check the squids array and see which squids depend on this account.
Deleting an account does not affect your squids, but they will fail to run if they require this account for authentication.
If you’re experiencing cookie issues, use Refresh Cookies instead of deleting and re-creating the account.
