Manage Bot Computers
Grok Bot team admins can now recreate or terminate Bot computers in bulk
Team admins on an Enterprise team can now manage their members' Grok Bot computers, alongside organization admins. Manage Bot Computers, on the Grok Bot dashboard page, recreates or terminates computers for many members at once.
Recreate or terminate
Recreate and terminate both keep the member's durable disk
Both actions keep each member's durable disk, so their Bots, files and logins come back. Recreate moves them to the latest image and runs Team Setup again. Terminate stops the work, and their next message starts a fresh computer.
What members lose
Apps members installed themselves are removed
Either action removes apps and packages members installed themselves. Anything Team Setup installs comes back. A terminate loses the turn that was running, and a recreate can drop sign-ins to company tools.
Restart after a settings change
Team admins can restart every computer after a settings change
After some team settings change, the Grok Bot page shows a restart notice. Enterprise team admins can run that restart themselves. It recreates every member's computer with the current settings. Terminate and delete stay under Manage Bot Computers.
Terminate inactive computers
Grok Bot can terminate computers left unused for 30 days
Terminate Inactive Computers cleans up idle computers, and it's off by default. Turned on, it terminates any computer unused for 30 days, including ones already past that mark. A computer with a Bot at work is left alone.
Access stays
Terminating a computer doesn't remove a member's access
Terminating a computer, by hand or automatically, only ends the member's current work. To remove access, take the member off the team or turn off their access with Manage Group Access, then revoke their sessions in your identity provider.
Messaging Between Bots
Team admins can switch off Messaging Between Bots
A team admin can also turn off Messaging Between Bots, which is on by default. While it's off, members' Bots can't message other Bots or hand them work, and other Bots can't message them.
