Redirect URI for localhost not working
Hello, I have troubles in adding the redirect URI to my dropbox app. The placeholder said that http is allowed for localhost. I use a hostname.
How can I fix that without setting up https? The app is still in develop.
- As a matter of security, Dropbox doesn't allow the use of http:// with a non-localhost redirect URI. I'll ask the team to look into adding an exception for .local, but I can't make any promises as to if or when that would be done.
