What's the best way to handle changing permissions for an existing app?

Question

Hi team, We currently have an app that has about 50 installs. We're making some enhancements to the app and need to increase the number of required permissions.  What is the best way to go about this process? If we add more permissions, do the users who currently have the app installed need to reauthenticate? Thanks!Cory

@cory b​, Good, Thanks for asking &#128521;I just check this out for you, it seams they can use app with previously set permissions.However, to get updated permissions they should regenerate token (reauthenticate).

Hi @cory b​&#128075;, How are you doing? As far as I know, they should make reauthorization. Currently, in Intercom is not possible to change app perms, like we are doing this in Facebook (there only revoke button). Good catch for @Product Wishlist​.
