Account linking - changing Facebook app

Hello.
We are using the facebook for account linking and for some reason, we need to start a new facebook app from scratch, I'm wondering will that affect the players who are currently linked to facebook?

If you mean you would like to change the Facebook app Id on you title’s [Game Manager]->[Add-ons]->[Facebook] page. As the “integration details” said, it will only affect the Facebook users’ purchase.

And if you want to change the Facebook App Id for your Facebook SDK, you would need to set up your projects again according to this documentation - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/gaming/playfab/features/authentication/platform-specific-authentication/facebook-unity. Since the API LinkFacebookAccount only requires the AccessToken that related to the player’s Facebook account authentication, changing the App Id for the Facebook SDK won’t remove the existed account links. You can still use the linked Facebook accounts to query and retrieve players.

Hrmm never mind I double checked and the access token is unique to each facebook app id, so with the way we are linking to facebook ( link -> PlayFabErrorCode.LinkedAccountAlreadyClaimed -> retrieve the conflicted account info) it won't actually show the conflict, so we can't use it the way we would like to.
