Change Connection Native Mode
Native Mode controls the operational state of a connection within the underlying connectivity provider platform.
Depending on the provider, changing native mode may allow you to:
- Activate connections
- Suspend services
- Resume connectivity
- Restrict network access
- Change operational lifecycle states

Supported native modes

Suspended | Connectivity is temporarily disabled |
Inactive | Connection is not currently active |

Some providers may use different terminology or support additional operational states.

- CSV imports
- Automated workflows
- API integrations

Monitor operation status
After submitting a native mode change:

Some provider operations may not be reversible immediately and could affect billing or service availability.
