Impact on Databricks objects after a user is deleted

What happens to resources (notebooks, jobs, clusters etc.) owned by a user when a user is deleted? The underlying problem we are trying to solve is that we want to automatically delete users through SCIM when the user leaves the company so that the user token is deleted.

When you remove a user from Databricks, a special backup folder is created in the workspace. This backup folder contains all of the deleted user’s content.

W.r.t clusters/jobs, an admin can grant permission to other users.
