Using IdentityModel.OidcClient with Dropbox
Hey
I'm using the IdentityModel.OidcClient to authenticate the dropbox account of a user within my application.
The authentication works as expected with one exception: The redirect_uri. ...

"Invalid redirect_uri: "https://127.0.0.1:51931": It must exactly match one of the redirect URIs you've pre-configured for your app (including the path)."
... Is there a limitation to the amount of redirect URIs?

Hi CloudServices,
If you take a look on the parts of your post, that I enlightened above, you will find out the response, I believe.
For Dropbox, URI can vary (arbitrary or not) within border of set of pre-configured redirect URIs, associated to your application. If particular URI (including loopback variation) is not there, error comes up. That's it. Take a look on your application settings.
To be honest, I don't understand what kind of connection problems you are trying to avoid and how port randomization would help you!? 🤔
Hope this clarifies matter.
Hi,
I don't know why, but my reply hasn't been accepted by the system. I'm trying to post now in smaller chunks.
I think I have setup the redirect URI the right way (to https://127.0.0.1), as I do for google & co. What I'm trying to find out is: Why Dropbox doesn't accept redirect URIs with random ports.
