In my app the server send this link: appname://veryfy?email=test@mail.com&token=asdf-asdf-asdf-xcfghfgh
but is it possible to get the values like email= test@mail.com
and the token = sdfdkgdkgjgfd
.
So far I've only added this intent filter inside my manifest but the app is not called:
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND"/>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>
<data android:mimeType="text/plain" android:scheme="appname://"/>
</intent-filter>
Note this should open my app when the link is clicked in the browser
You can get the email and token by getting the Activity's intent like this:
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND"/>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>
<data android:mimeType="text/plain" android:scheme="https"
android:host="api.myapp.com"
android:pathPrefix="/api/v2/verify"/>
</intent-filter>
Intent intent = getIntent();
Uri data = intent.getData();
String email = data.getQueryParameter("email");
String token = data.getQueryParameter("token");
The scheme in your filter should just be appname, not appname://
android:scheme="appname"
try this
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="@string/title_activity_main"
android:exported="true">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND"/>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>
<data android:mimeType="text/plain" android:scheme="appname"/>
</intent-filter>
</activity>
To get your url parameter write this in your activity
Uri data = getIntent().getData();
String scheme = data.getScheme();
String host = data.getHost();
List<String> params = data.getPathSegments();
String first = params.get(0);
String second = params.get(1);
Try this:
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"/>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>
<data android:mimeType="text/plain" android:scheme="appname"/>
</intent-filter>
and the link on the web:
<a href="appname://veryfy?email=test@mail.com&token=asdf-asdf-asdf-xcfghfgh">
Getting data in your Activity:
// check if this intent is started via custom scheme link
Intent intent = getIntent();
String action = intent.getAction();
if (action != null && action.equals(Intent.ACTION_VIEW) {
Uri uri = intent.getData();
String scheme = uri.getScheme();
if (scheme.equals("appname") {
String email = uri.getQueryParameter("email");
String token = uri.getQueryParameter("token");
}
}
