# Revoke external user access

> Remove unwanted external user access to your organization's assets directly from Oleria, with support for Microsoft SharePoint.

Remove unwanted external access to your organization's internal assets directly from Oleria. The External Access page shows every external user with access to your connected instance - who they are, what they can access, and how they got access. Oleria administrators can revoke excess or unwanted permissions for Microsoft SharePoint.

<Note>Only Oleria Administrators can perform this action. [View role permissions](/administration/default-user-roles).</Note>

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the external users list">
    Navigate to **Governance** → **External Users**. All external accounts in the Freemail and Third party vendor categories are listed, along with the number of assets shared with each account.

  <Step title="Filter and initiate revocation">
    Filter by **Application** and **Application Instance**, then select **Revoke access**.

    * If revocation is not supported for an application, or if an account has no shared assets, the row is greyed out with a **Not supported** tag and cannot be selected.
    * If revocation is supported but not yet configured for the integration, the row is greyed out with a **Configure** tag.
