FR: Firebase Dynamic Links directly open the App Clips #7027

Closed DanMotataeanu closed 1 year ago

DanMotataeanu commented 3 years ago

Feature proposal

Hello,

I was trying to create a dynamic link for one of my apps, and under Android in the Firebase Console I can find the option if the user does not have the app installed to be sent to Instant App page.

Unfortunately, creating the same behaviour on iOS is not working.

@DanMotataeanu Just to clarify, is the dynamic link not able to trigger your App Clips or your main iOS app's Apple store page?

I'm having the same issue here. Anyone found a way to have the firebase dynamic link feature to trigger an app clip?

@chliangGoogle Hi, any update on this ?

sirwes commented 2 years ago

We also want Firebase Dynamic Links to point to the app clip. Not having this functionality is pretty debilitating for our use case. We're using Flutter in connection with FDL

Any update on this? Seems like we just need to edit the apple-app-site-association file to include the appclip information we need.

sirwes commented 1 year ago

A bad workaround would be to have the FDL redirect to a webpage that has a smart app banner, then the user clicks that banner which redirects them to the app clip

Yea that’s what I did but it’s not ideal

@sirwes and @jjjeeerrr222 We brought this issue to the team and in the meantime please upvote the Original Post to help the team prioritize.

Thanks for the comments and sorry for the inconvenient. As of now, the workaround mentioned above is the best workaround. As mentioned by Charlotte, please upvote the original post to help prioritize.

Thanks

Adding the appclip key to the apple-app-site-association file on my website worked properly so if I’m not mistaken doing the same the FB AASA file should work as well

jjjeeerrr222 commented 1 year ago

The only issue with this workaround is that the dynamic link always opens to the preview page even though i tried to disable it.

So user clicks DL -> preview page -> opens my own website -> open app clip. This can be streamlined to go right into the app clip link with instant apps on android

Now that Firebase DynamicLinks is planned to shut down, closing its feature requests.
