iOS Deep Linking with Auto Login Token in the URL

I am new to deep linking in iOS and I am trying to make sign-in work with a magic link.

The links that the users would receive in their email inbox would be something like this:

https://subdomain.domain.com/?autoLogin=XXXX...XXXX

I want to extract the auto login token and make sure when users click into this link, it takes the user directly to the app.

What path should I put in the apple-app-site-association file?

Currently I have /?autoLogin= and it's not working.

Solution

  • In your URL, ?autoLogin= is a query item and not part of the path.

    In your apple-app-site-association you should just need to set the path to /. The ? is messing it up since it's used to match any single character in the string.

    If you want to have a specific path, you'll have to update your url to something like https://subdomain.domain.com/autoLogin?token=XXXX...XXXX, then you could add /autoLogin to apple-app-site-association.
