I’m implementing DeepLinks in compose navigation and I just realised that:
This works:

private const val DEEP_LINK_URI = "<https://example.com>"

This doesn’t:

private const val DEEP_LINK_URI = "<http://www.example.com|www.example.com>"

Is this intentional or I’m missing something?
Thanks 🙏

Can you explain what exactly you're doing with these constants?

[Ian Lake]

<http://www.example.com|www.example.com> is a valid uriPattern for `navDeepLink`: https://developer.android.com/jetpack/compose/navigation#deeplinks

[Ian Lake]

But it is just shorthand for registering both the http and https version of that URL as per the docs: https://developer.android.com/guide/navigation/navigation-deep-link#implicit

[Ian Lake]

You'd need to include the http/https if you are trying to navigate() to that deep link

Gotcha, so I can define it www.example.com, but when I navigate I need to use the protocol. Yeah I was trying to do navigate("<http://www.example.com|www.example.com>")

[Viktor Petrovski]

There was no protocol since those url were from my API endpoint and the urls were www.example.com/post/{postId} , so I was getting exception
