App signout issue
Hi, Having issues with getting signed out in my app, so as to sign-in again with a different user (or simply prevent someone else from having unauthorised access due to still signed in). As far as I...
Revoking a particular access token prevents that token from being used, but it doesn't completely unlink an app from the account. (E.g., there may be other access tokens for that app-account pair.)
Also, it doesn't revoke the user's web session in the browser, which is unrelated to access tokens.
The user can always unlink apps from their account from the Connected apps page, or log out of Dropbox via the logout page.
Also, the app itself can optionally use the forceReapprove or forceReauthentication option on DropboxOAuth2Helper.GetAuthorizeUri though to have the user explicitly re-approve the app, or entirely re-authenticate (i.e., log in to the Dropbox web site) again, respectively.

Aesome! Thanks Greg! Didn't see any reference to that in my search results, but ForceReauthentication does the job. :-)
