Hi, im trying to create my own APi.
Im following the tutorial https://myanimelist.net/blog.php?eid=835707
but when im trying to do step 2 after allowing, ive got message that Safari cant connect to the server 'localhost'.
Am I doing something wrong? My app redirect URL is http://localhost/oauth just like in tut.
I've tried also using this tut https://gitlab.com/-/snippets/2039434 but the answer is same.

Thanks

@blaNKye: Hi! That's the expected behaviour if you're not listening for incoming connections on localhost.

After getting redirected, the URL should look like this:

http://localhost/oauth?code=def5020425...

What comes after ?code= is your Authorisation Code. You need this to generate your Access Token.

@ZeroCrystal Hi, how am I able to extract the authorisation code into my python file?
