Info : Redirect URI

An URL in your app dedicated for code (or token) retreive. https://www.oauth.com/oauth2-servers/redirect-uris/

This is a critical part, where some confidential data could be exposed such as access_token. This is why https://github.com/please-openit/token-leak-extension/blob/master/recommandations/danger/implict_flow.md is not recommended, authorization_code grant is safer.

https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6749#section-1.3.1

From this URI, authentication in the app is really starting with an information sent by the authentication server in the URI as a parameter.
