We intercompany charges for Quickbase app usage and I have been asked if there is a way to suspend or pause an app while this intercompany charge is resolved.  This app has like 225 users and about 50 roles.  I really don't want to go user by user or even by role.  I totally do not want to delete the app.  Any ideas would be appreciated.

If it's just charges from users accessing/using the app, and you want to just stop everyone for a bit, you could go to users > select all > change role to none (or some other role where they couldn't access). However, if you have pipelines or automations that are triggered from usage, those pipelines would also need to be disabled.

Not to the best of my knowledge.   However you can control roles through the API. https://developer.quickbase.com/operation/getUsers

If you can write a couple of scripts, I bet you can get all the data, change their roles and restore them afterwards.
