IOS ASWebAuthenticationSession for OAuth
Previously I used a WKWebView browser control to perform the OAUth. This allowed me to trap the redirect URL to obtain the access code. My redirect URL was http://localhost/Auth
Now I am using the Native browser interface ASWebAuthenticationSession This requires that you use an APPLICATION specific callback URL scheme for your redirect uri. i.e. MyAppName://Auth
The Dropbox APP console allows me to specifiy this as the Redirect URL but gives an error when I try to call the oauth2/authrize endpoint using this as the redirect_uri
Thanks, I used the Code flow as it looked more secure.
It would seem that custom URL schemes would be as secure as LOCALHOST ... both of which can only work on the user's device.

Can you share the full URL of the page displaying the error, as well as the text of the error itself? Thanks in advance!
