My web application is deployed to a production site, but I also need to perform local development. Besides, I have a couple of test servers where I perform different testing activities. I would like to specify all these URIs for Facebook OAuth2. With Google OAuth2 there is no problem: I can specify as many redirect URIs as I need.

Is this possible with Facebook? How? I am using the "Website with Facebook Login" option to integrate with Facebook.

Currently I am getting:

{
    error: {
        message: "Invalid redirect_uri: Given URL is not allowed by the Application configuration.",
        type: "OAuthException",
        code: 191
    }
}

I'm not sure when they added this, but I just discovered a "Valid OAuth redirect URIs" field in the "Advanced" settings of my Facebook app. I just put http://localhost in there and it appears to allow redirect to any URI on my localhost. No more duplicate apps!
