How do I disconnect or revoke the Elastic Email integration?

Removing the Elastic Email integration from Valid Email Checker is a two-step process for full hygiene. Step one: delete the connection on our side. Step two: revoke the API key inside Elastic Email. Step one is enough to stop VEC from accessing the account; step two ensures the key cannot be reused elsewhere.

Step 1: delete the connection in VEC

1. Sign into VEC and open Integrations.
2. Find the Elastic Email row in Connected Integrations.
3. Click the three-dot row menu and choose Delete.
4. Confirm the deletion in the modal.
5. The Elastic Email entry disappears from the table immediately.

Deleting the connection also clears the sync history bound to it. Past verification jobs remain in your Uploads & Results page as independent records — they no longer reference this integration.

Step 2: revoke the API key in Elastic Email

1. Sign into Elastic Email.
2. Open Settings → API Keys.
3. Find the key you used to connect to Valid Email Checker.
4. Delete or regenerate the key. Elastic Email instantly invalidates the previous value.

What happens to running verifications?

A verification mid-import keeps running with the credentials cached at the start of the job. New sync attempts will fail until you reconnect. Reconnect by following the steps in the Elastic Email integration guide.

Reconnecting later

Reconnect by going to Integrations → Connect Integration → Elastic Email and pasting a fresh API key. The new connection is treated as fresh with no link back to the deleted one. If you previously named the connection something distinctive (helpful in multi-account setups), reuse the name to keep team-facing labels consistent.

Team-member-created connections

A connection created by a team member shows a Users badge in the Provider column. Account owners can delete any connection; team members can only delete connections they themselves created.
