Nope, that's not true. Once it's deleted, it's gone.

This sounds familiar, but I can't remember the exact details. I think I leaned towards "Yes" in a similar practice question.

I recall reading that once an account is deleted, the username is locked for a certain period. So maybe "No" is the right choice?

Is that a trick question? I'm pretty sure Okta doesn't let you summon deleted users like some kind of IT necromancer.

I think the answer is B. Deleting a user account permanently removes all associated data, so the username can't be reused.
