Short Answer:
Disconnecting removes access to all repositories linked via that account, and documentation for those repos will stop updating automatically.
Prerequisites
-
Open Settings > Connectors
-
Be ready to re-add the connector later if you want updates restored
Steps
-
In Settings > Connectors, click the trash/delete icon for the GitHub account you want to remove.
A Disconnect confirmation modal appears. -
Read the warning: “This will remove access to all repositories linked through this account. Documentation for these repos will no longer update automatically.”
-
If you plan to restore updates later, re-add the connector via Add connector and complete authorization.
Troubleshooting
-
Docs stopped updating after disconnect
-
LikelyCause: Repo access was removed when the connector was disconnected.
-
Action: Reconnect the GitHub account (Settings > Connectors > Add connector), then run a Sync.
-
Note: Disconnecting is a destructive action for automated updates—confirm before proceeding.
