Will changing an account password also change existing DEV APPs oauth2 and jwt tokens ?
We have a box account for storage purpose.
The Box account :
1. Have multiple apps .
2. Apps are having oauth2 and jwt authentication , which we use in our custom applications to communicate(file search/upload/download) with Box.
Now our question is , if we change the login password of existing account then ,
1. Will we be able to proceed with our existing oauth2 and jwt tokens
Or do we have to generate new oauth2 and jwt tokens after account password has been changed ?
2. Will it also affect ftp login to ftp.box.com using account name and password ?

Hi ,
For the tokens, those should be a snapshot in time, so they should still maintain the same level of access for the user account even after the password is changed. In short, no, they shouldn't auto-revoke unless there is something that is done to revoke the tokens.
For FTP access, if you're using user credentials to log in the ftp services then you will need to use the new login credentials if those are changed.
