WEB UI: Select google account. (Revoke permissions does not help like said in FAQ)

I'm sorry for asking, but the faq said that revoking permissions at least would allow to choose a google account. unfortunately even though i was revoking permission to the primary account, the WEB UI (in firefox) opens with my picture from the primary account (all devices deleted). this account is not on all devices so i will need to use another one.. but i cannot change.. before giving access for the first time i could change the account in a pop-up.

Sorry about that. So even though Join doesn't have permissions anymore it still can load up your account details? Can you maybe try clearing cookies and data for the website?

What happens if you visit the site in an incognito window?

well sure this works.. same as with a complete other browser profile.. as the standard google account is not logged in.. nevertheless before giving the app once access there was a pop-up window to choose the account.. which was not there any more since granting access and revoking (all cookies deleted). i think somehow your server was caching the primary google account data..

But the server doesn't know what user you are unless the browser somehow sends that info to it. There must be something that's still sending that info...

Can you please try clearing all the cookies not only for my website but also for accounts.google.com? Also try deleting Local Data for those 2 websites as well and not just the cookies.

I really wish that the google sign in API would have a simple sign-out method but it does not :(
