192.168.65.2 host.docker.internal

How can I add http://host.docker.internal:3006/callback to Authorized redirect URIs in google OAuth API?

Answer 1

You need to use a public routable DNS entry, for Google OAuth to be able to redirect the user back to you after authentication. You can't use host.docker.internal.
