Private Sub LogoutToolStripMenuItem_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles LogoutToolStripMenuItem.Click Dim wHeader As WebHeaderCollection = New WebHeaderCollection() Dim wProxy As IWebProxy = WebRequest.GetSystemWebProxy() wProxy.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials wHeader.Clear() wHeader.Add("Authorization: Bearer " + storedaccesstoken) Dim sUrl As String = "https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/auth/token/revoke" Dim wRequest As HttpWebRequest = DirectCast(System.Net.HttpWebRequest.Create(sUrl), HttpWebRequest) wRequest.Headers = wHeader wRequest.Method = "POST" wRequest.Proxy = wProxy Dim wResponse As HttpWebResponse = DirectCast(wRequest.GetResponse(), HttpWebResponse) Dim sResponse As String = "" Using srRead As New StreamReader(wResponse.GetResponseStream()) sResponse = srRead.ReadToEnd() End Using If System.IO.File.Exists(FILE_NAME) = True Then System.IO.File.Delete(FILE_NAME) End If Dim login As New Login login.Show() Me.Close() End Sub End Class

When using OAuth 2 to make an API call like this, as it appears you are, you should supply the token as a "Bearer" token in the "Authorization" header. The header shouldn't go on the URL itself though, as you have.
For example, using OAuth 2 with API v1 to revoke the access token, it would look like this, using curl:
curl -X POST https://api.dropboxapi.com/1/disable_access_token \ --header "Authorization: Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN_HERE"Or, using OAuth 2 with API v2 to revoke the access token, it would look like this, using curl:
curl -X POST https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/auth/token/revoke \ --header "Authorization: Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN_HERE"API v2 is recommended over API v1 as API v1 is deprecated.
Hi, this my code. But, it's not working. Can you help me?
storedaccesstoken = My.Computer.FileSystem.ReadAllText(FILE_NAME) Dim client = New WebClient() client.Headers("Authorization") = "Bearer " + storedaccesstoken Dim disableac = client.Dispose("https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/auth/token/revoke")- Greg-DBIn what way is it not working? What response are you getting?
- Well, i change the code, and found same method as curl -X POST, now the problem is im still using API v1 token flow, when i try to disable the token, it's work but now the problem is how to unlink my app so we can get a new access token
- Greg-DBI'm afraid I still don't follow. Can you share what you have so far that's giving you trouble?
For reference, API v1 supports both OAuth 1 and OAuth 2. API v2 supports only OAuth 2. You can use the same OAuth 2 access tokens across both API v1 and API v2. hey i already solved it, i use some method in other web to call the URL and post the access token. but thanks for the lead greg.
