        let client = DropboxClientsManager.authorizedClient!
        print(client.users.getCurrentAccount())
        let Dropboxclient = client.users.getCurrentAccount()
        Dropboxclient.response { ( result, error) in
              print(result?.email ?? "test")

The developer documentation would be a good place to get more info. Specifically, the users/get_current_account endpoint has more information about the response object (which does contain the account's email address). 

If you're using the Swift Dropbox SDK, then the Swift-specific docs might also come in handy. Here's a link to the getCurrentAccount() method. 

Hope that helps!
