Meridian Deep Links Follow

Meridian-powered apps support linking to specific pages, placemarks, and events in the app by creating URLs that follow a specific format. These links are called deep links.

In order for the deep link URL to work, the Meridian-powered app must be installed on your mobile device.

Overview

The general format for the URL is as follows:

{white label URL schema}://{location ID}/{object-type}/{identifier}

How to find the appropriate object-type and identifier will be explained below.

Linking to a Specific App

The URL to link to a specific Meridian-powered app will be in the following format:

{white label URL schema}://{location ID}

Here’s an example:

com.arubanetworks.campus://5468665088573440/

Accessing this URL will launch the Aruba Campus and then display the Aruba Portland location.

Link to a Page

The URL to link to a specific page in a specific app will be in the following format:

{white label URL schema}://{location ID}/pages/{pages ID}

To find a page’s identifier, go to the edit page for a specific page in the Editor. The Editor’s URL will have the page ID.

https://edit.meridianapps.com/apps/54686573440/versions/1/pages/5696260972

The page ID follows pages/ in the URL.

Here’s an example:

com.arubanetworks.campus://5468665088573440/pages/1040012

Link to a Placemark

The URL to link to a specific placemark in a specific app will be in the following format:

{white label URL schema}://{location ID}/placemarks/{placemark ID}

To find placemark’s ID, find the placemark on its map, and click it to open the placemark detail. The Editor’s URL will have the placemark ID.

https://edit.meridianapps.com/apps/546863440/versions/1/maps/5653104741500/placemarks?placemark_id=56531580800_568600317472

The placemark ID is the value following placemark_id in the URL.

Placemark IDs always have an underscore.

Here’s an example:

com.arubanetworks.campus://5468665088573440/placemarks/1003_0012

Link to an Event

The URL to link to a specific event in a specific app will be in the following format:

{white label URL schema}://{location ID}/events/{event ID}

To find placemark’s ID, find the placemark on its map, and click it to open the placemark detail. The Editor’s URL will have the placemark ID.

https://edit.meridianapps.com/apps/123456789/versions/1/events/987654321

The placemark ID is the value following event_id in the URL.
