Deep linking with query parameter not working in Android

Question

I have a deeplink with query parameter. When I click on the deeplink its not showing me my app in the dialog, all its showing browser app. By any chance do we need to add anything in assetslinks.json to support query parameter? Please suggest me what could be the issue.

My deeplink URL: myCustomScheme://myHost?type=xxx

Did you get your deep link working with query parameters? The current answer doesn't acknowledge the URL with query parameters. — Shubham AgaRwal, Nov 04 '19 at 06:10

For deep linking, use intent filters described in the Launcher activity to get the parameters described in the link. You can have more than one data tags in an intent-filter. One such example is given below:

<activity
    android:name=".views.activity.SplashActivity"
    android:configChanges="orientation"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:screenOrientation="portrait"
    android:launchMode="singleTask"
    android:theme="@style/ColdStart">
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
    </intent-filter>


    <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="your host here"
            android:scheme="https" />


    </intent-filter>


</activity>

Thanks Abdullah for the reply. Already I had those changes in manifest file. But without query parameter its it's working but with its not working. – user448250 May 03 '19 at 11:54
okay. then how do you try to access the parameters? Do you try getIntent().getData() to get the Uri? – Abdullah Riaz May 03 '19 at 11:58
Issue is when I click on deeplink, my app is not showing in app suggestions dialog. – user448250 May 03 '19 at 12:03
It is because your scheme or host is incorrect in the data tag. What is your actual deeplink url? – Abdullah Riaz May 03 '19 at 12:18
Its something like this:Https://www.domain123.com/xxxx.aspx?type=xxx – user448250 May 03 '19 at 12:37
use this in your intent-filter : – Abdullah Riaz May 03 '19 at 12:49

Its working that way. I want to include query parameter also in the manifest file. – user448250 May 03 '19 at 12:52

Given your deep-link URL is something like this: https://www.domain123.com/xxxx.aspx?type=xxx

Try this setup in your AndroidManifest.xml:

<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:scheme="https" />
    <data android:host="www.domain123.com" />
    <data android:pathPrefix="/xxxx.aspx" />


</intent-filter>

Note that there is no place for query parameter definition in AndroidManifest.xml.
