How to turn app off temporarily? **URGENT**

[martinav]

I need to turn off certain apps due to a serious server overload issue after an SQL upgrade.  I know you can 'turn on/off' a flow, what about an app?

Thanks,

Rod

Actually, is there a way to disable the on-prem gateway, in a way that it wont break all of the connectors when you need to turn it back on?

Hi @martinav,

Model-Driven Apps can be Deactivated via the maker portal. 

For Canvas Apps, there is no deactivate option unfortunately, so your best bet would be to modify the app permissions so that only yourself/admins can access it.

For an On-Premise Data Gateway, you can similarly modify the permissions so only admins have access. The other option is to stop and disable the Gateway service on your servers where the gateway is installed.
