OAuth2 redirects to Dropbox.com instead of my redirect URI
When my users go through the OAuth authorization flow, then click the Allow button at https://www.dropbox.com/oauth2/authorize, Dropbox redirects the user to Dropbox.com, when it should redirect the user to my redirect URI. How do we fix this?

Thanks for the report. This issue doesn't seem to reproduce for me though. Can you perhaps share a short screencast showing the issue? It may help to open the Network tab of the browser's developer tools first so we can see what requests are occurring.

Thanks, that's helpful. It looks like your jistix-staging.com/oauth2/dropbox page is itself redirecting back to www.dropbox.com for some reason.
It goes by fast in the log in your video, but here's the relevant portion:
The authorize_submit page is the "Allow" action on the Dropbox app authorization page, which returns a 302 redirect to your redirect URL, giving it the authorization code. Your /dropbox?code=... then itself also returns a 302 redirect back to www.dropbox.com for some reason though. You'll need to debug the code for that route on your web app to see why it's doing that.
