Revoke credential
Hello,
When using access token, there is the function
DropboxClient.auth().tokenRevoke()
to revoke the token (cases when one would want to do this is when the user decides to log out).
Now with the new workflow, DbxCredentials are used instead of access tokens. Is there a function that does something similar?
Since the token gets refreshed from time to time. Does refreshing revoke the previously used token?
The same tokenRevoke method can be used with the new short-lived access tokens as well. Calling it will revoke the short-lived access token used, as well as the corresponding refresh token and other short-lived access tokens for that refresh token, if any.
Just performing an access token refresh does not invalidate previous access tokens.
