Beginner programmer here, please pardon ignorance & explanations will be really nice 🙂
I’ve tried to read the tutorials for a certain OAuth 2.0 service, but I don’t understand this redirect URI… in my particular context, let’s say I’m trying to build an iPhone app that uses OAuth 2.0 for some service. I have an App ID that was generated, but i need to provide some sort of redirect URI to generate the API key.
Is this a URL that I’m supposed to host somewhere myself?? As the name suggests, I would think that the redirect URL is supposed to “redirect” someone somewhere. My only guess is that it’s the URL a user is redirected to after they log in to the service.
However, even if that assumption is correct, I don’t understand one other thing – how can my app be opened again after I’ve sent them to the browser for the user login?
