How to use 'ofl' parameter using Dynamic link rest api

[Harish Moyal]

Hi,

I am trying to achieve a different behaviour for my dynamic links on desktop (Windows/Linux/Mac etc). I am generating the dynamic links using REST api given here https://firebase.google.com/docs/reference/dynamic-links/link-shortener. As per documentation a parameter named 'ofl' can be specified to achieve a different behaviour of a dynamic link on Desktop. 

I am not able to create such a link with ofl parameter because in the documentation it is not mentioned where to place the ofl parameter in the request body. I tried placing it at the following places:

1. Inside dynamicLinkInfo i.e dynamicLinkInfo.ofl

2. At the root

3. Inside androidInfo i.e. androidInfo.ofl

But every time I am getting the error. For eg for case 1 I am getting: Invalid JSON payload received. Unknown name \"ofl\" at 'dynamic_link_info.android_info': Cannot find field."

Sample request body:

{

  "dynamicLinkInfo": {

    "domainUriPrefix": "https://mycustomdomain.page.link/",

    "link": "https://www.abcwebsite.com/test/?val=1234565434543/",

    "androidInfo": {

      "androidPackageName": "com.abc.xyz",

      "androidFallbackLink": "https://www.google.com"

    },

    "ofl": "https://www.mydesktopsite.com"

  },

  "suffix": {

    "option": "UNGUESSABLE"

  }

}

Please help.

Hi Harish,

Could you try:

{

  "dynamicLinkInfo": {

  ...

    "androidInfo": {...},

    "desktopInfo": {

      "desktop_fallback_link": "https://www.mydesktopsite.com"

    },

  ...

  }

}

Hi Arthur Thompson,

Thanks for the reply. The desktop_fallback_link works perfectly as expected. Wondering why this field is not available in the documentation for Dynamic links on Firebase documentation.

Hi Harish,

Thanks for calling that out, that field should be in the docs I'm working adding it.
