Resolve short branded links

Adjust’s link shortener solution converts your complex and long links into cleaner and shorter links. The shortened links retain deep link and campaign information, and route users to the app store, if they don’t have your app installed.

Use the method described in this section to resolve your short links.

Set up deep linking in the Adjust SDK

In the Adjust SDK, add support for the following:

Set up the Adjust SDK to resolve short links

public static void processDeeplink(Uri url, Context context, OnDeeplinkResolvedListener callback)

The Adjust SDK delivers deep link information within your activity’s intent object using either the onCreate or onNewIntent method. The deep link is available on the data property of the intent object. You can access this deep link once the app is launched and one of these methods has fired. You can then call the processDeeplink method to resolve the short Adjust link URL that deep linked users into your app.

Kotlin
Java

override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
   super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
   setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)

   val intent = intent
   val webpageURL = intent.data
   Adjust.processDeeplink(webpageURL, this) { resolvedLink ->
      // resolvedLink contains either resolved URL (if it was unshortened)
      // or just echoed URL if it was not shortened
      Log.d("Example", resolvedLink)
   }
}

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
   super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
   setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

   Intent intent = getIntent();
   Uri webpageURL = intent.getData();
   Adjust.processDeeplink(webpageURL, this, new   OnDeeplinkResolvedListener() {
      @Override
      public void onDeeplinkResolved(String resolvedLink) {
            // resolvedLink contains either resolved URL (if it was unshortened)
            // or just echoed URL if it was not shortened
            Log.d("Example", resolvedLink);
      }
   });
}

Kotlin
Java

override fun onNewIntent(intent: Intent?) {
   super.onNewIntent(intent)

   val webpageURL = intent.data
   Adjust.processDeeplink(webpageURL, this) { resolvedLink ->
      // resolvedLink contains either resolved URL (if it was unshortened)
      // or just echoed URL if it was not shortened
      Log.d("Example", resolvedLink)
   }
}

@Override
protected void onNewIntent(Intent intent) {
   super.onNewIntent(intent);

   Uri webpageURL = intent.getData();
   Adjust.processDeeplink(webpageURL, this, new   OnDeeplinkResolvedListener() {
      @Override
      public void onDeeplinkResolved(String resolvedLink) {
            // resolvedLink contains either resolved URL (if it was unshortened)
            // or just echoed URL if it was not shortened
            Log.d("Example", resolvedLink);
      }
   });
}

In case the link you sent to processDeeplink method was shortened, resolvedLink returns the extended original link. In case the link you passed to the method wasn’t shortened, then resolvedLink contains the same link you have passed.
