Relinquish Access
Removes all self-removable access from a file or folder for the current user. Best-effort and idempotent: attempts to drop link-visitor associations and explicit ACL membership.
Required scope: private:sharing.write
Endpoint format: RPC
Authentication: User, Dropbox-API-Select-Admin (Whole Team)
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 token issued to a specific user. Use Authorization: Bearer <token>.
Public clients should use the authorization code flow with PKCE (S256).
For background or offline access, send token_access_type=offline during authorization and use the returned refresh token to obtain new access tokens.
You can generate a short-lived access token from the App Console; see Testing with a generated token.
