    The Dropbox .NET SDK builds a Uri from the redirectUri string you provide, using the Uri Constructor. The Uri Class canonicalizes URIs, including:

     

    "Removes default and empty port numbers."

     

    The "443" port is default for SSL/TLS, so it's implied by "https://" and shouldn't be necessary.

     

    Can you elaborate on the issues you're running in to with it omitted though?

I should specify that the error we were getting was:
An unhandled exception has occurred: invalid_grant (1fff7674)
Dropbox.Api.OAuth2Exception: invalid_grant

I see, thanks for the information. In that case, you should register the redirect URI without the port. I'll ask the team to clarify this in the documentation.
