Redirect Uri when Registering App

Hi,

I am writing a Python web application which will run locally (on localhost:5000) but needs to access the AccountRight cloud API.

What Redirect Uri should I use in that case when registering the app?

Thanks,

Anthony

Hi Anthony (AnthonyErp)

Thank you for reaching out, The redirect URI is the location where the authorization server sends the user once the app has been successfully authorized. For example, I use the app Insomnia and have the redirect URI or https://insomnia.rest or when using the Postman app I have set this up to be https://www.getpostman.com/oauth2/callback.

I hope this helps.

Many Thanks,

Hi Hannah,

Thank you for taking the time to reply.

Am I right in assuming that if my application is running on localhost:5000 then the redirect_uri should also be localhost:5000?

Thanks,

Hi Anthony AnthonyErp

Thank you for the update, If you are building a desktop or mobile app and don't have a web service, then use http://desktop as the URI.

Many Thanks,
