Communication between Auth and your app

Communication between your app is handled using HTTP redirects. Your webview / app should intercept the redirects in order to react accordingly to state changes. All redirect URLs will have the scheme ("prefix") methodelements. The event source will be the URL host and the payload will be query strings.
