Create a Custom OAuth App

When To Create a Custom OAuth Application

CData embeds OAuth Application Credentials with CData branding that can be used when connecting via a desktop application or headless application.

You may choose to use your own OAuth Application Credentials when you want to

  • control branding of the Authentication Dialog
  • control the redirect URI that the application redirects the user to after the user authenticates
  • customize the permissions that you are requesting from the user

Create a Custom OAuth App

  1. Log in to your Dropbox developers dashboard and click Create New App. Select the Dropbox API type. Select the Full Dropbox access for your app.
  2. After creating your app, you can view Configuration from the main menu that displays your app settings.
  3. On the app Settings tab, note the values of App key and App secret for later provider configuration.
  4. Set the Redirect URI and store the specified value for later provider configuration.
    • When setting up a desktop app or headless app, set the Redirect URI to http://localhost:33333 or a different port number.
    • When setting up a web app, set the Redirect URI to https://<yourwebappserver:><port>.
  5. On the app Permissions tab, select the scope of user permissions your app will request.

No further values need to be specified in the CSV app settings.
