Firebase Dynamic Links not Available After Install

Question

I've implemented Firebase Dynamic Links and universal links are working as expected. For custom scheme URLs I get the call to application:openURL:options: but the link is never available. After I click on my Dynamic Link from the notes app, get taken to the App Store and launching my app from Xcode I always get <my-scheme>://google/link/?dismiss=1&is_weak_match=1 which from what I've read it means that Firebase was successful in connecting to the server but couldn't find a pending link.

DynamicLinks.performDiagnostics has this output:

---- Firebase Dynamic Links diagnostic output start ----
Firebase Dynamic Links framework version 2.3.2
System information: OS iOS, OS version 11.2.6, model iPhone
Current date 2018-03-26 04:57:40 +0000
Device locale en-AU (raw en_AU), timezone Australia/Sydney
    Specified custom URL scheme is <my-scheme> and Info.plist contains such scheme in CFBundleURLTypes key.
    AppID Prefix: XXXXXXXXXX, Team ID: XXXXXXXXXX, AppId Prefix equal to Team ID: YES
performDiagnostic completed successfully! No errors found.
---- Firebase Dynamic Links diagnostic output end ----

Configurations:

Firebase 4.11.0
DynamicLinks 2.3.2
Xcode 9.2
Testing on an iPhone 7 Plus with iOS 11.2.6.
Tested on WiFi and Cellular

I've followed the documentation for setup and made sure that FirebaseApp.configure() is called on application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions.

Any ideas of what I could be missing?

It's a bug on Firebase side, I got it working at some point but it stopped working again. You can browse github issues on the iOS sdk and join the request to get it fixed. — Carlos de Elias, Aug 30 '18 at 00:53

Firebase have a big problem with the dynamic link, the instruction is not really clear, base on : https://firebase.google.com/docs/dynamic-links/custom-domains

and update this to your ios project:


// Info.plist
<dict>
  <key>FirebaseDynamicLinksCustomDomains</key>
  <array>
    <string>https://yourtargetlink.com</string>
    <string>https://yourfirebasedynamiclink.com/link</string>
  </array>
</dict>

this will work for: https://yourfirebasedynamiclink.com/link/?link=${encodedLink}&apn=com.example&isi=1449448875&ibi=com.example encodedLink=https://yourtargetlink.com (you should encode it to this https%3A%2F%2Fyourtargetlink.com)
