How to disconnect an Azure subscription

You can disconnect your Microsoft Azure subscription in the Azure Settings category. This can be useful when you want to switch to a different subscription or need to reset Parallels DaaS.

Warning: This action will permanently delete all virtual machines created by Parallels DaaS and data stored on them.

To disconnect your Microsoft Azure subscription:

  1. In the Azure Settings category, click the Disconnect button.

  2. Enter delete-parallels-daas in the text field and click Disconnect.

  3. (Optional) If the regular disconnect fails, you can initiate force disconnect. Note that after performing a force disconnect, you will need to delete all Azure resources manually. To initiate a force disconnect, click Learn more, read the instructions in the dialog, and click Force Disconnect.

Disconnecting a Microsoft Azure subscription takes approximately 15 minutes. Once the subscription is disconnected, you will not be able to use Parallels DaaS. To start using Parallels DaaS again, you will need to connect an Azure subscription again as described in .
