Hey Deparis!

Thanks for reaching out about managing OAuth2 token erasure in your Retool app. I've looked into this, and it turns out Retool currently doesn't have a built-in mechanism to directly erase tokens upon app logout. This would effectively invalidate the token on the server side, even though it might still be present in Retool's memory temporarily.

Feature Request:

I'm also happy to create a feature request for token erasure functionality in Retool. To make the request as impactful as possible, please share additional details about your use case and the benefits you envision this feature would bring.

I'm committed to working with you to find the best possible solution within Retool's current capabilities. Feel free to share any further information that might help us identify the most suitable approach.

Thanks for your understanding and collaboration!
