After removing the SSO connection, any organization members that were auto-provisioned (for example, with SCIM) need to set up a password to sign in without SSO. To do this, users can [reset their password at sign in](/accounts/create-account/#reset-your-password).

Consider the following before downgrading:
65
+
66
+
- Team size and repositories: You may need to reduce team members and convert private repositories to public or delete them based on your new subscription limits.
67
+
- SSO and SCIM: If downgrading from Docker Business and your organization uses single sign-on, remove your SSO connection and verified domains first. Organization members who were auto-provisioned through SCIM need to reset their passwords to sign in without SSO.

- Private repository collaborators: Personal subscriptions don't include collaborators for private repositories. When downgrading from Pro to Personal, all collaborators are removed and additional private repositories are locked.
