Using OAuth 2.0 within a Google Doc container bound script

Question

I know the means of using the OAuth 1.0 flow for making calls to Google APIs (including calls to the Google Drive API).

However, Drive is now using OAuth 2.0, and I want to adjust my Google Doc container based script such that it can access the Google Drive API (and likely others) using the new authentication flow.

I would like to know what Redirect URIs and Javascript origins are for my Google Docs container based script.

Answer 1

It seems like you are trying to apply oauth 2.0 to installed application. Here is a documentation about it. This documentation exactly answers your question about redirect URI. For Javascript origin, if your application is web application and if it is using Javascript, you should set this to be the url of your application. If not, just set it as http://localhost. It doesn't matter.
