Im trying to add the Instagram url to my app in iOS9 however I am getting the following warning:
-canOpenURL: failed for URL: "instragram://media?id=MEDIA_ID" - error: "This app is not allowed to query for scheme instragram"
However, Ive added the following to the LSApplicationQueriesSchemes
in my info.plist
;
<key>LSApplicationQueriesSchemes</key>
<array>
<string>instagram</string>
<string>instagram://media?id=MEDIA_ID</string>//this one seems to be the issue
</array>
Any help is greatly appreciated?
EDIT 1
This is the code I am using to open instagram:
NSURL * instagramURL = [NSURL URLWithString:@"instragram://media?id=MEDIA_ID"];//edit: note, to anyone copy pasting this code, please notice the typo OP has in the url, that being "instragram" instead of "instagram". This typo was discovered after this StackOverflow question was posted.
if ([[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL:instagramURL]) {
//do stuff
}
else{
NSLog(@"NO instgram found");
}
based off this example.
Put only
<string>instagram</string>
. It's not necessary the full path but the base of the scheme url.For Facebook who's need:
Your
LSApplicationQueriesSchemes
entry should only have schemes. There's no point to the second entry.Read the error. You are trying to open the URL with a typo in the scheme. Fix your reference to
instragram
in your call tocanOpenURL:
