'https' missing from OAUTH2 callback URL

Describe the problem/error/question

While this hasn’t been a problem in the past with other credentials that require it, I now have one that fails without the https prepended to the callback URL. Is there a way to get the callback URL that is passed with the initial authorization to include “https”?

I have N8N_PROTOCOL set to https and it is also included in the WEBHOOK_URL variable.

Information on your n8n setup

  • n8n version: 0.221.2
  • Database (default: SQLite): Postgres
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main): queue mode
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app): Docker
  • Operating system: unknown linux distro

Hey @mbowler,

The protocol is added to the oauth callback URL from the WEBHOOK_URL it sounds like maybe it isn’t set properly or wasn’t stopped then started after making the change.

Can you double check the WEBHOOK_URL option and confirm it includes the protocol, If it is set can you share your full configuration with anything sensitive removed so we can test.

Hey Jon. Sorry for the huge delay. Got pulled into some other projects. Consequently, I have discovered that this is also affection auth with Google Cloud Projects.

Hey @mbowler,

That setup looks like what I have in mine apart from the N8N_EDITOR_BASE_URL, We should be picking up the value from the WEBHOOK_URL option so it still feels like that option is not set correctly or maybe isn’t being picked up unless N8N_EDITOR_BASE_URL is overwriting it, Have you tried adding https:// to the start of that as well?

Bingo! Looks like that did it. Not sure why I didn’t try that. Hindsight 20/20 and all…

Thanks!
