4. Please note "Callback URL" patterns for different sources:
User should add "Callback URL" or "Redirect URL" to 3rd party data sources according to following pattern. Since some oauth sources can only support one Redirect URL for single app, so it is suggested user to set up separate apps for Web Server - Browser connection and Rest Server - Desktop / Workstation connection, otherwise user may need to update Redirect URL saved in 3rd party data sources frequently.

http://localhost | http://localhost | http://localhost |
