**General Settings** \
\&#xNAN;*settings that control update frequency and core enablement options.*

* **WorkSpaces**: Enable/Disable AWS WorkSpaces.
* **WorkSpace Update Frequency:** Automatically update the local database with up-to-date information at regular intervals.

* **Auto Provision:** Enable [Auto-Provisioning](/admin/configuration-section/ap-profiles.md) of WorkSpaces via Active Directory groups.

{% hint style="info" %}
Removing a user from the AD group will not terminate the WorkSpace. This functionality can be obtained in conjunction with Auto-Delete
{% endhint %}

* **Auto Provision Frequency:** Define polling interval for auto-provisioning. This checks the AD groups in your AP profiles at specific time periods.

{% hint style="info" %}
If it finds a user in an AD group that does not have a WorkSpace, it auto-provisions one for them based on the Auto-Provisioning settings that you have specified.
{% endhint %}

**Lifecycle Management** \
\&#xNAN;*automate behavior based on activity, duration, and workspace state.*

* **Use Global AutoStop Time:** Sets a global time for auto-stop all the WorkSpaces in this mode.
* **AutoStop Timeout:** Set idle time (hours) before WorkSpaces are auto-stopped.
* **AutoDelete:** Enable automatic deletion after a defined duration.

{% hint style="danger" %}
If you do not want the WorkSpace to be automatically deleted, ensure that the **"AutoDelete"** tag is **NOT** applied.
{% endhint %}
