Description:

Hi there, I am connecting to Strava API and can authorize the app successfully, however, the success or failure handler never gets called.

App Delegate Code:
func application(_ app: UIApplication, open url: URL, options: [UIApplicationOpenURLOptionsKey : Any] = [:]) -> Bool { if (url.host == "oauth-callback") { OAuthSwift.handle(url: url) } return true }

VC Code below:

` func login(){

// Create OAuth Object
let oauthswift = OAuth2Swift(
    consumerKey:    "21913",
    consumerSecret: "a4bef18ded5104e4c6d00b37dfe40b2512b69730",
    authorizeUrl:   "https://www.strava.com/oauth/authorize",
    accessTokenUrl: "https://www.strava.com/oauth/token",
    responseType:   "code"
)
oauthswift.authorizeURLHandler = SafariURLHandler(viewController: self, oauthSwift: oauthswift)

    oauthswift.authorize(
        withCallbackURL: URL(string: "oauth-swift://oauth-callback/strava")!,
        scope: "write", state:"mystate",
        success: { credential, response, parameters in
            print(credential.oauthToken)
            // Do your request
    },
        failure: { error in
            print(error.localizedDescription)

If I just launch it in Safari and return the app I get the following error message:

The operation couldn’t be completed. (OAuthSwiftError error -10.)

-10 is retain error

Thanks! I appreciate your response! It works now if I use Safari, however, if I use oauthswift.authorizeURLHandler = SafariURLHandler(viewController: self, oauthSwift: oauthswift) it won't call the breakpoints on the handlers. Do you have any advise?

Thanks so much!

Any errors?

If not you can put a breakpoint in your func application(_ app: UIApplication, open url: URL, ... to see if OAuthSwift.handle(url: url) called
