I have written a Windows Forms app in C#, and everything works great in the sandbox. However after talking to RingCentral about SSO we apparently cannot just use the Token path to authenticate. Now that I am digging into the Code/Token path it seems this is only for Web Applications.


1. Has anybody used the Code/Token path in a windows form? If so... how?


2. Any other ideas for SSO to work without using Code/Token path?

For "Code/Token" are you talking about the Authorization Code flow ? https://devcommunity.ringcentral.com/ringcentraldev/topics/using-oauth-2-0-authorization-code-grant-...

For Windows form, you can embed a web browser widget and let user do authorization there. You can set redirectUri to localhost or whatever uri. Because you can access the address of the web browser widget to get the auth code no matter what is the redirectUri.
