Revoke a grant for an application

Deprecated

DELETE

/applications/{client_id}/grants/{access_token}

Deprecation Notice: GitHub will discontinue OAuth endpoints that contain access_token in the path parameter. We have introduced new endpoints that allow you to securely manage tokens for OAuth Apps by moving access_token to the request body. For more information, see the blog post.

OAuth application owners can revoke a grant for their OAuth application and a specific user. You must use Basic Authentication when accessing this endpoint, using the OAuth application's client_id and client_secret as the username and password. You must also provide a valid token as :access_token and the grant for the token's owner will be deleted.

Deleting an OAuth application's grant will also delete all OAuth tokens associated with the application for the user. Once deleted, the application will have no access to the user's account and will no longer be listed on the Applications settings page under "Authorized OAuth Apps" on GitHub.
