AppBuilder Invalid redirect_uri

[SarahLinden]

This is my first time using web app builder. I got to the point where I registered my apps URL properly, but must have used the wrong App ID....... I can't seem to get back to where I re-enter the appropriate app ID and am instead taken to a page that is blank and just says invalid redirect_uri

Anyone experience the same issue? Help! What should I do???

This happened to me. I "solved" it by unpacking the zip somewhere else and started the program from the new location. This might not be the best way, but I thought it might help.

I know this is a very late response but I had this issue this morning and I fixed it quite simply!

Go to your C:\..........\arcgis-web-appbuilder-2.0\WebAppBuilderForArcGIS\server

Then open your signinginfo.json file

there it gives you the option to change URL and App Id if need be.

Also, make sure that the "Current Redirect URIs" are appropriate in the application in your ArcGIS for Developers account. This should be the name of your machine on your network.

During Web AppBuilder registration, you may inputhttp://[yourmachinename]:3344/webappbuilder as URL of the app item,http://[yourmachinename]and https://[yourmachinename] as Redirect URIs.

so even after I have registered the app, and acquired the ID through ArcGIS Online - I still get the error, it says error 400..... any thoughts?

What did you put as the redirect URI in the application in your ArcGIS for Developers account?

[SarahLinden]

So, I didn't enter anything into the redirect URI in ArcGIS Online for the application........ that is where I'm not clear as to what I should be entering - sorry this is my first time using Web App Builder. Prior to this, I was strictly using templates provided through ArcGIS Online - it's not clear to me what I should put for the redirect URI

That's ok, this is a good time to learn.

Log into ArcGIS for Developers, go to applications, then click on the Authentication tab, and enter the URL to your machine name on your server and click the add button.

The URL to your machine name on your server is something like this:

http://my.server.com

If you don't know your machine name on your server, do you have someone you can ask?

[SarahLinden]

okay, this might be a dumb question but if I am solely relying on use of ArcGIS online - how do I find the server name?

[SarahLinden]

here is where my organizational stuff is hosted on arcgis online: http://seed-co.maps.arcgis.com/

but I am assuming that is not correct, because when I use that as the redirect URI, I continue to get the error
