Set up mobile deep linking

Before you can create deep link rules on individual links via the dashboard, you must first configure your app at the workspace level.

For a full explanation of how mobile deep linking works, see Mobile deep linking.

Step 1: Configure your app at the workspace level

1. Log in to Rebrandly and go to the Workspaces tab.
2. Click the workspace you want to configure.
3. Click Configure a new app.
4. Select iOS or Android.
5. Paste in the app install URL from the App Store or Google Play Store. Rebrandly fetches the app title and URI scheme automatically. Verify that the URI scheme is correct with your development team before proceeding.
6. Click Create. Your app is now configured for this workspace.

Repeat this process for each workspace where you want to create deep link rules, and for each platform (iOS and Android) separately.

Rebrandly maintains a deep link dictionary with over 60 popular apps pre-configured. Click Find most popular apps during setup to use it.

Step 2: Create a deep link rule on a link

Once your app is configured at the workspace level:

1. Open the link in the Rebrandly dashboard.
2. Go to the Deep links section.
3. Select the platform and app.
4. Enter the deep link URI for this specific rule — the in-app location you want to open.
5. Choose a fallback option for when the app is not installed (see Fallback options).
6. Click Save.

API use

Workspace-level app configuration (Step 1) is required before deep link rules can be created via the API.
