Deep Links in Android
When you want your app to be open while tapping on a link , it is deep linking.
How could we do this ?
We have intent-filter in android app, through that app will open will while tap on link.
<activity android:name=".MainActivity>
<intent-filter>
<action android:name=”android.intent.action.VIEW” /><category android:name=”android.intent.category.DEFAULT” />
<category android:name=”android.intent.category.BROWSABLE” /><data android:scheme=”http”
android:scheme=”http”
android:host=”www.mcappmedia.com"
android:pathPrefix=”/blog” />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
Our deeplink will be http://www.mcappmedia.com/blog
If some one click on this link and if app has intent filter in their app , it will open app.
I have write another article for diffrence between deeplink vs deferred link
