Dynalinks

We have added a new way of passing iOS and Android apps information when creating links via REST API. Now you can pass the { ios_app: { id: ... } } and { android_app: { id: ... } } parameters in the request body. This way you can create links for your apps without the need to pass the bundle ID or package name. More information can be found in the API documentation. You can find IDs of your apps in the console page of your project under iOS Apps / Android Apps.

We are happy to announce that we now support custom domains for your projects. This means that you can use your own domain to create links. This feature is available for pro projects only.

You can set it up by going to your project's console and clicking on Settings->Custom Domain. There you can add your domain and we will guide you through the process of setting it up.

In a significant upgrade aimed at improving user experience and future-proofing its infrastructure, we have successfully migrated to a new server. This move is expected to deliver faster response times. The new server setup includes full support for IPv6, the latest Internet Protocol version.

Now you are able to create deferred deferred deep linking on Android by using referrer parameter. This way, you can track the source of the install and attribute the install to the right source.
On Android you can use Play Install Referrer Library to get the referrer information.
Keep in mind that this functionality is enabled on paid projects only.

Recently we discovered a bug where links having query parameters would not be recognized. Now you can put them in your links, so it can be something like /mylink?param=value.

We have added more detailed instructions on how to setup your Xcode and Android Studio projects to work with dynalinks.
You can find the instructions in the console page of your project under iOS Apps / Android Apps.

If you want to skip the preview page and directly move user to the app or iOS app store / Google play store, you can now add the enable_forced_redirect parameter to your dynalink. This parameter is optional and can be set to true or false.

There is also option to set this parameter when creating link via UI in console page.

Now, you can create links on the fly, similar to Dynamic Links, with the same parameter names as the original.
Create a dynalink by manually constructing a URL using the following format:
https://{your_subdomain}.dynalinks.com/?link={deep_link}&ibi={apple_bundle_identifier}&apn={android_package_name}.
No registration in the console or use of our REST API is required for these links.
