Dropbox invalid redirect_uri, must be an absolute uri

My app (Xamarin Forms) used to work with the Dropbox API authorisation but now it is showing me an error "invalid redirect_uri, must be an absolute uri". This started happening, probably after I upgraded the Visual Studio/Xamarin nuget package for Dropbox.Api to 4.8.0 from 4.7.0. Absolutely, nothing else in the code for Dropbox authorisation was changed.

 

Yet, the non-local URLs I have for OAuth2 redirection on my app begin with "https://". What could have gone wrong?
