Attributes

Remarks

Lists all accounts visible to the caller regardless of type. Equivalent to getAccountsByType(null). These accounts may be visible because the user granted access to the account, or the AbstractAccountAuthenticator managing the account did so or because the client shares a signature with the managing AbstractAccountAuthenticator.
