android firebase dynamic link PendingDynamicLinkData is null direct through app

Question

Problem: Why is "Short dynamic links" created programatically wont open/launch the app directly?

I want to launch app directly when user clicks the dynamic url created dynamically by android app.

When clicking dynamic short link created dynamically by android app the following things happen,

1.Option show two options one is through chrome other is through app

2.if i choose chrome option, browser opens, shows a loading dialog box and launch app with PendingDynamicLinkData data

3.but if i choose app option, app lauches app but PendingDynamicLinkData is lost or null.

Any Help would be great. my manifest setting is below

  <intent-filter android:autoVerify="true">
    <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />

    <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
    <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />

    <data android:host="myapp.page.link" android:scheme="http"/>
    <data android:host="myapp.page.link" android:scheme="https"/>
  </intent-filter>

You should handle your PendingDynamicLinkData in activity to override onCreate and onNewIntent. Like this:

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        Intent intent = getIntent();
        if (intent != null) {
            handleDeepLink(intent);
        }
}

@Override
protected void onNewIntent(Intent intent) {
    super.onNewIntent(intent);
    if (intent != null) {
        handleDeepLink(intent);
    }
}

private void handleDeepLink(Intent intent) {
        FirebaseDynamicLinks.getInstance().getDynamicLink(intent).addOnSuccessListener(pendingDynamicLinkData -> {
            if (pendingDynamicLinkData != null) {
                Uri deepLink = pendingDynamicLinkData.getLink();
                if (deepLink != null) {
                    // todo .....
                }
            }
        });
    }
