❓ What is Deep Linking in OFM Pro?
Deep Linking is a feature that allows you to control how links behave when clicked. When Deep Linking is enabled, links are forced to open in the device's Default Browser instead of in-app browsers like Facebook or Instagram.
This enhances the user experience by ensuring a more reliable and consistent browsing environment while also improving tracking accuracy for external links.
🔑What is the Deep Linking Toggle?
The Deep Linking Toggle in OFM Pro allows users to decide how they want deep links to open:
Toggle ON: Opens links in the Default Browser (Safari, Chrome, etc.).
Toggle OFF: Opens links in the In-App Browser (e.g., within Facebook, Instagram, or other apps).
➜ Levels of Deep Linking Configuration
Deep Linking in OFM Pro can be configured at two levels for more granular control:1.
Base Level
This setting defines how all links behave across the platform when a user clicks them.
ON: Links will open in the Default Browser.
OFF: Links will open in the In-App Browser.
Button/Links/Carousel Level
OFM Pro offers even more flexibility by allowing deep linking settings for specific buttons, links, or carousels.
For example, you can set links to open in the In-App Browser by default, while configuring specific buttons or carousel links to open in the Default Browser.
🚀Why Deep Linking Matters
Better User Experience: Ensures users have a seamless experience by opening links in the default browser rather than being forced into an in-app browser.
Improved Tracking: By using the Default Browser, you get more reliable tracking and better insight into user behaviour.
Customisation: Deep Linking allows for a more tailored approach, letting you choose how links behave at both the global and component levels.
✅How to Use the Deep Linking Toggle
Go to your OFM Pro Dashboard.
Navigate to the Deep Links section.
Add Deep Link: Click on “Add Deep Link” to create a new link or modify an existing one.
You’ll see the Deep Linking Toggle—turn it ON to open links in the Default Browser or OFF for in-app browser behaviour.
For more specific control, use the Button/Link/Carousel Level configuration to define link behaviours for individual components.
In summary: The Deep Linking Toggle gives you complete control over how your links open, either in-app or in the default browser. You can configure it globally or at the component level for better user experience and tracking accuracy
