I'm facing an issue with deep links in iOS. I have a URL that needs to be excluded, and it includes a #
sign, for example, https://www.someurl.com/#/register
.
I've tried excluding this path in the apple-app-site-association file using the following declarations:
{
"/": "/#/register/*",
"exclude": true
},
"/": "/#/register/",
"exclude": true
},
{
"/": "/#/register",
"exclude": true
}
Despite declaring the exclude rule in the association file, the deep link still opens the app from the web browser. If you've encountered a similar issue and found a solution, I would greatly appreciate it if you could share your experiences.
In a url, everything following the # character is part of the fragment, not part of the path.
This means that you have to use the fragment matching rule, described here in your file.
You want something like
{
"#": "/register",
"exclude": true
}
