I'm trying to authorize with Yahoo using a link like this:

https://api.login.yahoo.com/oauth2/request_auth?client_id=dj0yJmk9ZHNUWExxZmhHckFDJmQ9WVdrOVdsQmtNa3BKTlRZbWNHbzlNQS0tJnM9Y29uc3VtZXJzZWNyZXQmeD03MA--&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Flastlink.com%2Fauthorize&response_type=code

However it responds with:

Please check the redirect URI in your request and submit again

I tried to search for this topic on ydn forums but they seems to be broken.

The domain of the redirect_uri has to be the same as the callback domain for the YDN App.

I can get a code using redirect_uri=oob:

https://api.login.yahoo.com/oauth2/request_auth?client_id=dj0yJmk9ZHNUWExxZmhHckFDJmQ9WVdrOVdsQmtNa3BKTlRZbWNHbzlNQS0tJnM9Y29uc3VtZXJzZWNyZXQmeD03MA--&redirect_uri=oob&response_type=code

  • i cant quite get the logic behind that: why the 'oob' value seems to be valid – lestrade Aug 15 '17 at 12:42
  • My RP always appends the port number to the hostname in the redirect_uri and yahoo doesn't allow you to put a portname in that value. That's a problem. – Barbara Jensen Mar 08 '18 at 23:33
