Can't close the page after authentication

Can't close the page after authentication

Hi

 

I use the below code for dropbox login

 

DropboxClientsManager.authorizeFromController(UIApplication.shared, controller: self, openURL: {(url: URL) -> Void in UIApplication.shared.openURL(url) })

 

it works perfectly, But after login window, it will ask permission to access the files and folder from dropbox. If I click the allow or cancel button it won't close the window and don't go to OpenURL function in the app delegate.

 

And I checked the "https://github.com/dropbox/SwiftyDropbox" SwiftyDropbox sample code from Github. It works perfectly on it.

Thanks! I see you don't actually have the "Handle redirect back into SDK" step implemented in your AppDelegate.swift. Please make sure to add that as documented.

 

Also, I noticed from your use of 'UIApplicationSceneManifest' in your Info.plist that this uses scenes, so make sure you also implement the handler in SceneDelegate.swift as noted here.

Can you confirm you followed all of the instructions for configuring your project and setting up the authorization flow as documented here?

 

For example, make sure you have your "CFBundleURLSchemes" configured with your "db-APPKEYHERE" URL scheme, and that you have the code in place to handle the redirect.

 

Also, do you get any error/output in the console in Xcode?

Yes, I did this all "CFBundleURLSchemes" configured with your "db-APPKEYHERE" URL scheme, and that you have the code in place to handle the redirect. And it working perfectly.

 

I attach a screenshot. when I click on the allow button the page is not dismissing.

Here is the video url. Please check this.

Thanks for sharing that. Do you get any errors or output in the console in Xcode though?

 

I see that the action is being submitted and that the SFSafariViewController is attempting to redirect to the custom URL scheme though, as it's momentarily shown in the title bar, so I would expect some error if that fails.

No error is shown in the Xcode console.

Thanks for checking that. Can you also check:

Otherwise, please supply a small sample project that reproduces this issue so we can reproduce it here to investigate.

The dropbox version used is 5.1.0

I created a new project and do the same thing. The issue is still on that app too.

Here is the source code: https://github.com/leninsmannath/DropboxSampleApp

give your dropbox API key and check the above sample project.

 

Thanks

Thanks, Greg. It's working cool.

 

I implemented the redirect back into SDK on AppDelegate.swift on original source code, forgot to do in the sample sent to you.

 

But I didn't implement the handler in SceneDelegate.swift.

You already mentioned the https://github.com/dropbox/SwiftyDropbox/issues/259 in your reply. Sorry I didn't check it properly. I apologize for it.

 

Anyway thanks for your patience and support.

Thanks, Greg
