There might be some posts around here where people that have done it, but you would need a set column action executed somewhere in your app that would write the deep link to a sheet, then a script, zap, or integromat integration that would read that url and run it through a third party url shortening service and write the resulting short url back to the sheet.

I’m sure there’s some technical reasons for the url being as long as it is that we just don’t understand. What I do know, is that when you decode it, there’s a lot of info, such as rowid, tab number and additional app info to help it get to the right screen. It’s not just a random string of text. Like I said, it’s probably so it knows which tab and hierarchy to navigate through to get to the correct view… especially if you have multiple ways to get to the same row in the app?

> Those are definitely different links, which means different data is encoded inside the link. I’m guessing part of it is to tell glide which tab to navigate to, then which list item in that tab to open. I think there is a lot to the inner workings of that link that we don’t know or realize. I suppose that since the tab is hidden, glide can’t complete the navigation into the list item of that tab and just defaults to the first tab. I also suppose that glide is building the link in a way that…

> Hi! I´d like to create a custom link for each store in my app and I was thinking on how to save the deep link for all of items listed on my tab “Stores” into any place. So, I can build something to create these custom links. On my tab “Stores” I have one line per store with all of it´s details (name, logo, etc). The idea is to redirect from the deep link provided by Glide to something like: [https://myappname.com/](https://myappname.com/)\<name\_of\_the\_store\> Any idea on how to handle this ?

> My app’s URL: rekomenjasa.id I created a deep link from a profile page titled “Trias Massage Jakarta” then shortened it using [https://bit.ly/RJtrias](https://bit.ly/RJtrias) so the profile owner can access it more easily. In the beginning it linked to the page correctly, but now it pointed to another profile page “Pijat Panggilan Kang Budi…” while maintaining the title of “Trias Massage Jakarta”. This results in the profile owner using and sharing the wrong profile. And now if we look up the correct profile and share …
