 I need to setup a callback URI to the product which running in single VM in GCP but I can not due to this rule Invalid Redirect: http://xx.138.198.104. must end with a public top-level domain (such as .com or .org)

Hi,

I believe it is a design choice and from a security perspective a good one I would say. If you have the flexibility to setup your own domain, you can use Cloud DNS to create a URL. If not, use a 3rd party URL service like bit.ly to create an URL.

cheers,

It's a request we get, and we're evaluating it, but anything we do would likely be opt-in, because as Krishnan is implying, there are security concerns. Some people put things in their resource names that would reveal details about their deployment and configuration that they may not want to reveal publicly.

Gents,
Thank you for your replies. Paul this is great your guys evaluating this options and opt-in seems to be logical and bring the best value to the customers in this case.
I gotta ask though, do you have a timeframe for rolling out this feature?
Cheers
nick

Sorry, I can't provide any specific timeframe right now, as our engineering schedule is pretty complicated and changes regularly. This isn't "just around the corner" but it's on our roadmap of improvements to make when we can. :/
