If your application uses a custom URL scheme for deep linking (e.g., myapp://category/item?id=123
) and you want to open a specific part of your app when a user taps a push notification, follow these steps:
- Navigate to Push Notification Creation: Go to the section in your dashboard where you compose push notifications (this might be labeled "One-time Messages", "Create Push", or similar, depending on your Pushwoosh setup).
- Configure Click Action: In the notification settings, look for a section typically titled "On-click Actions", "Action", or "Rich Media".
- Add Deep Link: Select the option to add a "Deep Link in Application" or a similar feature.
- Select Platforms: Choose the platform(s) (e.g., Android, iOS) for which this deep link is intended.
-
Enter Link Manually: This is a crucial step for custom schemes. Since your URL scheme (e.g.,
myapp://
) might not be listed as a standard option, select "Enter link manually" (or an equivalent option that allows free-form URL input). This is necessary if your custom deep link schemes are not pre-configured in the system. -
Input Your Deep Link: In the field provided, carefully type or paste the full custom deep link URL that should be opened in your app. For example:
Or, for a more concrete example:yourappscheme://your.app.domain/path/to/page?parameter=value
myapp://products/electronics/detail?sku=XYZ123
- Test: Always send a test push notification to a device with the app installed to ensure the deep link opens the correct screen or content within your app.
Troubleshooting:
* If the deep link doesn't work after sending a push, first verify that the custom URL scheme and the specific path are correctly implemented and handled within your mobile application. You may need to consult with your app developers to confirm this.
* Ensure the exact URL entered in the push notification settings precisely matches what your app is configured to expect.
