[ARCHIVED] How to get app url list for IOS and Android

[qnguyen]

Hi all,

We are looking for the app url list for Canvas on both IOS and Android, so if student is on a mobile device, access our Mobile app then need to access Canvas for the first time, this will open the Canvas mobile app for them to either install or bring the Canvas mobile up?

Example : Youtube

I'm not sure of the answer to this question, but I'm going to share it with the Canvas Mobile Users​ group to see if they can help!

Hi,  @qnguyen  ... I don't know what the answer is either, but wondered if the mobile docs over at GitHub would help you out at all?

iOS: GitHub - instructure/instructure-ios: iOS Apps and Frameworks by Instructure

Android: GitHub - instructure/instructure-android: Instructure's Open Source Android Code

Sounds like you need the mobile API documentation! I don't know what the behavior is if the app isn't installed, but if it is, and your app uses links formatted in this way, it will redirect to the Canvas mobile app instead of to the browser.
