Cloud accounts · Testing, editing and removing accounts

After removing an account, should I also revoke Storage Studio's access at Google or Dropbox?

Short answer: It's optional but tidy. Removing in Storage Studio deletes the connection from your Mac; revoking in your Google or Dropbox account settings also cancels the permission you granted on their side.

You can, and it's a tidy final step. Removing the account in Storage Studio deletes the connection from your Mac; revoking at the provider also cancels the permission you granted on their side.

In your Google account, open the security page and look for third-party apps with account access; in Dropbox, open your account settings and the connected apps list. Remove the entry you approved when you added the account. Revoking first and then removing in Storage Studio is fine too — the account would simply stop working until removed.
