CALLBACK URL:

Its part of the oauth2 authentication mechanism.

After someone has authorised your app, CCP redirect to the URL that provided and pass a special value to your app as a query parameter. Your app then exchanges that special value for the refresh/authentication tokens, which the app can continue to use to access the APIs until the user cancels the app's permission from CCP's website.

If you are just testing it out, you could use an invalid url (e.g. http://localhost/) and manually extract the token and continue the authentication.
