Hi Salil,

I do not have an example of it in Android, no. The username & password method is discouraged because it's fairly insecure, even over SSL.

What parts about the proper flow are you having problems with?

Hi Travis,

I am facing problems with the second step. I need to get the result back to my app to proceed to Step 3. The redirect_to could be any string or does it need to be in the proper http://.... format ?

This is how my URL looks like - https://www.themoviedb.org/authenticate/myrequestoken?redirect_to=myappname.

After I click on "Allow" I get a "Oops! -We cant find the page you're looking for." error.

The redirect_to param needs a full web address (starting with http), it's not designed to redirect to a local app.

How does Android handle internal links to local apps? I am not familiar with this at all but if there's local app URL schemes that we could tap into, like yourappname:// or whatever, that would be something I can add support for.

Hi Travis,

I was able to make it work by using the HTTP scheme. ( http://myappname ) When it gets redirected Android shows a chooser dialog ,Browser apps and my app, cause it finds multiple applications to handle the HTTP scheme. I haven't found a way to force Android to let only my application handle this. If the user chooses any browser app, it anyway will not be able to resolve the URI. I am not sure if its a good or a bad user experience but right now I can proceed with the HTTP scheme.

Android can handle custom URL schemes.If needed we could try something like tmdb:// or something that is not specific to an application name.

Happy to hear you sorted it out. I don't think I want to encourage people use tmdb:// because if we ever have an official app then that would probably be what we wanted to use but I was thinking more along the lines of letting the redirect_to param not require "http://" but rather, a value like "yourapp://".

Hello @salil.khanwalkar ,

I am currently stuck in redirect_to "https://www.themoviedb.org/authenticate/myrequestoken?redirect_to=myappname." part of my android app. How to force android web view to load back on MainActivity and also complete the Step 3: Create a session ID after authenticating. Could you provide some help?

Thanks.
