How to logout from metamask account in reactjs using Ethereum

I am unable to disconnect from Metamask account. I am attaching the code snippet.

export const logoutUser = () => {
    if (window.ethereum && window.ethereum.isMetaMask) {
        window.ethereum.on('accountsChanged', function (accounts) {
            return () => window.ethereum.removeListener('accountsChanged', accounts);
        });    
    }
}
Solution

  • As of now, you cannot log out of Metamask by web3 or Ethereum api. You have to manually disconnect Metamask.

    accountChanged listener will just detect if Metamask connects to a different account.
