The problem is that this code does not work in my Application. It stops at Proce/ssCodeFlowAsync method and after that the eternal loading of response begins. Sometimes eternal loading begins at HandleJSRedirect and HandleOAuth2Redirect methods, I do not know what causes such behavior.

Ivan_, the code is for one time use!!! Once you get your credentials (access token and refresh token) the code isn't valid anymore! You should keep received credentials (primary the refresh token) and reuse later when needed to construct client object. Why after the authentication (you have credentials already) are you calling still handlers designate for initial authentication? 🤔 I cannot see a reason.

You can use redirect URL and listen to there. What actually are you using the 'http' object for? 😉

It's not possible for user side authentication (or least not a good idea). It's only possible on server side with pre-authentication and embedded credentials into the server, if applicable in your case.

Hi Здравко
I tried to do this
But I faced with such problem :
Firstly I am sending the request in order to get Approve code
After I performed confirmation in browser that I am trusting source I get this thing in browser
If look closely to URL it contains code that I need to extract automatically
It looks exactly as code in browser during usual approve
However when I copied it to request for generating token
I receive error
I do not know what I am doing wrong
If I execute this code
It will give me approve code after confirmation in browser
via which the token is generated successfully
But when I try to do all same with only one difference, that after user's confirmation this approve code will be extracted by program, not by user manually via this code
I get error that I described above
To sum up : the only thing that I need to implement is to make automatic approve_code extraction, without making user to copy this code from browser manually after user approved that he trusts source
