Android Deep Linking with multiple query parameters

Question

I\'m trying to deep link my app and have implemented the following in my AndroidManifest.xml to open the proper activity.

Answer 1

Just encode your url parameters and it will work. It might be google's parsing bug.

Before:

adb shell am start -W -a android.intent.action.VIEW -d "myCustomScheme://myHost?key=category_parent_id&value=92&title=test" com.myApp.android

After:

adb shell am start -W -a android.intent.action.VIEW -d "myCustomScheme://myHost?key%3Dcategory_parent_id%26value%3D92%26title%3Dtest" com.myApp.android

Answer 2

Just add \ before & sign when testing with adb.

Copy this:

adb shell am start -W -a android.intent.action.VIEW -d "myCustomScheme://myHost?key=category_parent_id\&value=92\&title=test" com.myApp.android

Answer 3

For osx / mac users with android studio

Load adb

export PATH="/Users/your_user/Library/Android/sdk/platform-tools":$PATH

Check that the app is recognized

adb shell am start -n com.package/.activities_package_name.MainActivity

Test deeplink

adb shell 'am start -W -a android.intent.action.VIEW -d "myCustomScheme://myHost?key=category_parent_id\&value=92\&title=test" com.myApp.android'

Don't forget the ' '

Answer 4

You can wrap the shell command with simple quotes (to avoid modifying the uri content):

adb shell 'am start -d "myCustomScheme://myHost?key=category_parent_id&value=92&title=test"'
