Having trouble linking back to native app with OAuth 2 (react-native-appwrite SDK)
Setup:
export const client = new Client()
.setProject("12345*********")
.setPlatform("com.thisis.myapp");
Below is triggered on button press
const doAuth = async () => {
console.log(Linking.createURL(""));
const account = new Account(client);
const url = account.createOAuth2Token(
OAuthProvider.Google,
Linking.createURL("callback"),
Linking.createURL("callback"),
[]
);
if (url) {
console.log(url.href);
const result = await WebBrowser.openAuthSessionAsync(
url.href,
Linking.createURL("callback")
);
console.log(result);
}
};```

When testing, if i remove the callback urls, a user is registered in appwrite but I am not redirected back to the app from appwrite.
`const url = account.createOAuth2Token(OAuthProvider.Google);`
> Missing redirect URL
> Your OAuth login flow is missing a proper redirect URL. Please check the OAuth docs and send request for new session with a valid callback URL.
Where am I going wrong here? I have seen similar posts but they seem to solve for web, not native apps. Not seeing any help with react native oauth in the docs.

ChatGPT suggests going to a section within appwrite where you can add authorized redirect URLS (would add "com.thisis.myapp"). This makes sense to me but that doesn't appear to be a setting.
Summary
Developers are having issues linking back to a native app in OAuth 2 flow using Expo React Native and experiencing an "Invalid 'success' param" error due to incorrect URL host. To resolve, you need to add authorized redirect URLs in Appwrite settings, although this might not be readily available. The error also suggests the OAuth login flow is missing a valid redirect URL.
