Is Redirect Uri required?

Hi all,

Sorry for the newb question. I have facebook, google, and apple authentication enabled for by ios and android app. In the MongoDB authentication provider’s page is a spot for redirect uri. I left it blank because I really don’t know what it means. Authentication seems to be working for now in my apps (apple and facebook on ios, google and facebook on android).

Is the redirect uri something I can omit? or will it cause issues later down the road?

Thanks for any insight you can provide.

I don’t believe you need the redirect URI for iOS (and I assume the same for Android) as your app can see whether the login succeeded or not and then react as required.

I also believe that the warning about “your app may not work” is because a web app attempting to use a redirect URI that you hadn’t included in the list would be rejected.
