Application Registration only allows http(s) as Redirect URI

Question

I want to build a desktop application and need the redirect URI to be something like my-app://soundcloud/callback. In the application registration form, it's not possible to enter such redirect URI in the input field because only http and https protocols are allowed. How and where can I set the redirect to be my-app://soundcloud/callback?

Answer 1

You could have a website url that would redirect to a custom url. For example, if you want to have the redirect_uri to be myapp://soundcloud/callback, you could register a domain, and apply with the redirect_uri = http://myapp.domain.com/soundcloud/callback, and have that url redirect to myapp://soundcloud/callback with all of the same headers and parameters.
