Specifies the endpoint to which the client is returned after authenticating with a third-party service when OAuth 2.0 authentication is enabled (AuthenticationMethod=OAuth2).
For some authentication flows, the REST service will redirect you to a third-party service for authentication. Once your credentials have been validated, the third-party service returns the client to an endpoint in the REST service to continue the session. The endpoint used by the third-party service is provided by the client and specified using the RedirectURI property.
Valid Values
string
where:
string
is the endpoint used to retrieve OAuth 2.0 authorization codes. For example, https://example.com/countries/.
Notes
The redirect endpoint is often registered with the authentication service to provide improved security. Registering the endpoint prevents your valid authentication credentials being redirected to a malicious site; therefore, reducing the risk of sharing your access token and other sensitive information with unauthorized parties.
This property is not required for all authentication flows. See “OAuth 2.0 authentication” for a list of common authentication flows and their requirements. If you are unsure of the requirements for your authentication flow, contact your administrator for more information.
