Setup Branch.io for custom domain.

setup_branchio_for_custom_domain.md

Two different versions of document as seen in

  1. https://dashboard.branch.io/start/existing-users/ios
  2. https://dev.branch.io/getting-started/sdk-integration-guide/ + https://dev.branch.io/getting-started/universal-app-links/guide/ios/

I followed each one separately for my custom domain (l.pbapp.net) as set in Link Domain section, and at last it doesn't work for me. Tested on iOS 9.3.2. The problem is whenever click on the link, it doesn't take me to the app. But SDK can detect the link I clicked previously when observe in debug log when directly run the app myself. So only "taking-me-to-app" part.

But I did the following to make it work

  1. Include the following in Info.plist
<key>branch_app_domain</key>
<string>l.domain.net</string>

That is recommended not to include in Info.plist if you're using custom domain on Branch.io document website.

  1. Associated Domains, I need to add all the following
applinks:na9w.app.link
applinks:na9w-alternate.app.link
applinks:l.domain.net
applinks:l-alternate.app.link

This is contrast and different from documentation instructing to add only applinks:[mycustomdomainorsubdomain] and XXXX-alternate.app.link
