How to create a user with UserRootInfo?

I would like to test if my new app works with both Dropbox user account with UserRootInfo and TeamRootInfo.

I was able to sign up for a Business Standard plan and my user came set with TeamRootInfo. How to I change my user to have UserRootInfo?

I am refering to this article https://developers.dropbox.com/dbx-team-files-guide
where its mentioned:

  • Spoiler
    If using a user linked app, call /users/get_current_account and check the returned RootInfo type to see if the user is a member of a team that uses the team space configuration. Specifically, the returned root_info will be a UserRootInfo (with .tag of user) if the team doesn't use the team space, or a TeamRootInfo (with a .tag of team) if it does.
