Dropbox API Support & Feedback

Hello,
Is there a way to switch from one account to another without revoking the accessToken. Since I migrated to V2 I can not manage several accounts with my app.
I always come back to the same account after:
//previously DbxClientV2 created dropBoxService = null; //previously String accessToken created dropboxAccessToken = null; //start to create a new one Auth.startOAuth2Authentication(getActivity(), APP_KEY); //finaly in on resume method: dropboxAccessToken = Auth.getOAuth2Token(); DropboxClientFactory.init(dropboxAccessToken); dropBoxService = DropboxClientFactory.getClient(); new GetCurrentAccountTask(dropBoxService, new GetCurrentAccountTask.Callback() { @Override public void onComplete(final FullAccount result) { Log.i("DROPBOX",String.valueOf(result.getEmail())); //i obtain the same previously created email and not a new one! Why? }
SolidExplorer for example switches from one account to another without losing the accessToken. I can not find the trick.
Thank you.
Ok, Greg K thank you.
I had this issue because i had used a given class of Android sample.
DropboxClientFactory.init(dropboxAccessToken); dropBoxService = DropboxClientFactory.getClient();
DropBoxClientFactory.init() method check if the client is null before to initiate a new one.
Solved for me.
The access token you use identifies which account you connect to. You can store and re-use multiple different access tokens to support using multiple different accounts.
There's some more information here:
