Short Dynamic link error com.google.android.gms.common.api.ApiException: 8:

Question

I am trying to get Firebase dynamic links to work in my app.

I have a function with the following

    //long
    String link = \"http://www.blessd.mobi         


        

Answer 1

Firebase team was able to reproduce the issue and has already reported this to their team.

Currently, there are two workarounds for this issue:

• Use the Dynamic Link version 16.0.1 to be able to generate a short Dynamic Link: implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-core:16.0.1'
implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-dynamic-links:16.0.1'

• Stick in using version 16.1.1, create a long link first then try to shorten the long Dynamic Link using this guide.
