Apps & API - DigitalOcean Community

Posted on August 20, 2014

While exploring the Control Panel, I noticed that this app has full access to my account. I also see an option to revoke it. I have 2 questions:

(1) What is the purpose of the DigitalOcean Community app?

(2) What are the benefits and/or drawbacks of revoking this permission?

Thank you.
