React Native - Getting error code "400: Cannot shorten a short Dynamic Link" whenever trying to shorten the dynamic link?

[JayM96]

Issue :

when trying to generate a short link using firebase Dynamic links i'm getting following error.

Error: [dynamicLinks/build-failed] com.google.android.gms.common.api.ApiException: 400: Cannot shorten a short Dynamic Link:

React Native :

I have tried the following code for creating links :

const generatedDynamicLink = await firebase.dynamicLinks().buildLink({ link: https://test.page.link/groupinvite/name=test, domainUriPrefix: https://test.page.link/groupinvite, android: { packageName: 'com.test', }, ios: { bundleId: 'com.test', appStoreId: '1546898245', }, });

Above method works perfectly. But, it gives me a long link like, https://test.page.link//guestinvite?apn=com.test&ibi=com.test&isi=1498742044&link=https%3A%2F%2Ftest.page.link/%2Fguestinvite%2Fname%3Dtest

So to shorten the link i'm replacing firebase.dynamicLinks().buildLink(....) with "firebase.dynamicLinks().shortLink({.....},"SHORT")" But it gives me an error like,

Error: [dynamicLinks/build-failed] com.google.android.gms.common.api.ApiException: 400: Cannot shorten a short Dynamic Link:

So can anybody please suggest me a workaround solution to create a short link like "com.test/guestinvite/abdgsyd" ?

Also, how to easily fetch the initial link. currently i am using following link but i'm not able to get query parameter "name" from link.

componentDidMount() { dynamicLinks().getInitialLink().then((initialLink)=>{ console.log('initialLink : ', initialLink.url); }); }

What version of the library are you using? You've missed loads out still.

[JayM96]
