I am trying to implement a logout function using the homey-oauth2app in a Homey app. The documentation isn’t clear on this, and I can’t find relevant Homey-specific guidance.

Has anyone here dealt with this before? Any advice or resources would be appreciated.

Thanks.

With oauth, you just get an access token. You can’t logout.  
You can remove the access/refresh token. Then you will get an access error on next API call.  
It it what you want?

You can take a look at the API documentation if such a function is provided. I haven’t used it before.  
Perhaps this one setting a blank token.

Yes, I can remove the access/refresh token. But then I will only get unauthorized API responses, and the user does not have the possibility to login again I think.

This re-auth should be done via repair view.  
You are using the repair function similar to pair function showing the login popup.
