Universal Link Test: Failed to extract required information for application links

Question

Trying to configure Universal Links for iOS 9. I am using the Apple Validation Tool:

https://search.developer.apple.com/appsearch-validation-tool/

Everything passes, except that I get Action Required for Link to Application . Message: “ Could not extract required information for application links. Learn how to implement the recommended Universal Links. ” I tried to run the tool both from my desktop and from a device that I believe is configured correctly. Universal Links do not work for me when I try to use them in Safari.

The documentation does not contain anything that clearly explains what this information is.

Answer 1

What is fixed for me, understands that you must enter the actual URL in the verification tool, and not just the domain (root)> IF <apple-app-site-association file indicates a sub-item.

In other words, if only part of your site redirects the application, be sure to enter the URL that includes the subdomain into the verification tool!

[Spent all day figuring this out - LOL]

Answer 2

In my case, the problem was with the "#" symbol in the link.

While the apple-app-site-association file has a wild card for any links "/? / Foo / *", "/ a / foo / bar" will go through until "/ # / foo / bar"
