Iā€™m not quite sure. Last time I check anything regarding deep link the ā€œSet columnā€ action that would have helped us to automate the flow is still not writing the right link. ---

Is this approach working for you? If so, Iā€™d like to understand more about how to do this. I donā€™t have experience with scripts ---

If youre trying to automate, you should be able to do this with a multi-step action. When testing though, you have to do it in the app itself, not the Glide editor. I got it to work in an MVP project. > **[Buffie - Your beauty booking BFF šŸ’„ | Product Hunt](https://www.producthunt.com/posts/buffie)** > > Buffie is the new beauty booking app for makeup artists to book clients easily - anytime, anywhere. We've streamlined the booking process so MUAs can get booked faster and get back to doing more of what they love. Users can generate their profile URL thatā€™s just a short link of their username, the destination link is the deep link. ---

@Lisa Thanks Hereā€™s what I need to do. I currently have emails being sent by Zapier when a new row is added. I would like to include a deep link in the email back to the details screen of the just created item. Any thoughts on how I can do this? ---

I know you can do this if youā€™re creating the new row from a form. You can create a custom action based on the values set in the newly created row. Iā€™ve created something similar when users create an appointment - a text message is sent along with a deep link to the appointment created. **Create an action to trigger after the form is submitted** ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/b/9/b942d8f24ec29f34c4fcd141572d975acf595d8d.jpeg) **Youā€™ll want to create one action to capture the deep link** ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/d/4/d472013fb67cee212dbd5ff9eed1b6d11e89cb60.png) **Then, you should create a webhook to send the information you want into Zapier (or any other connector - I personally use Integrately)** ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/2/3/23a17169a18cf85091aae721503b35dba308d674.png) To test this, **make sure you do it on a mobile device** so that the deep link captured is the page itself. If you do it within Glide, you wonā€™t get the deep link, but a link to the GDE. ---

@Mark@George_B why when I try to copy to clipboard a screenā€™s link, it brings me the ā€œnormalā€ link `appname.glideapp.io` and not `appname.glideapp.io/dl/.....`? Edit: the tab/table has **Row ID** ---

@Lucas_Pires, it should give you that deep-link if you have row owners on the table linked to the detail you are in. Please submit a ticket with a screen recording that shows us how to navigate to the area of your app where you have the action and who the ā€œpreveiw asā€ should be.

Are you copying the link from the live app itself or through the Glide editor? Youā€™ll only get the right deep link through the live app. ---

Hi Lisa, Thanks for your clear explanation. Iā€™ve a related question to the use of deep links. Iā€™m trying to make a one-click url that references a comment (text element submitted via a form in a glide table). The intent is the url is texted to a recipient and the recipient can click that one url and come straight to the comment thread on the app. I can save the deep link on form entry and send it via a webhook (I use integromatā€“\>clicksend. However, when users try to click the (very long) resulting url, they are always brought to the log-in page on the app, rather than the comment thread. Iā€™ve made sure to test this from a phone, rather than Glide builder. Any insights? Would sure like to make this workā€¦ ---

Have those users logged in your app before? I believe that is the intended flow if you have an app that forces users to log in. ---

Thanks, yes, thatā€™s part of the problem: users have the app installed, and theyā€™ve already logged into it. When they click the deep link (from a text), instead of being directed to the intended item in the app, they are directed to the login page for the app. Again, Iā€™m doing this from a Glide table (no row ID), rather than a Google sheet, when using the Glide phone app (not the glide builder). Itā€™s a Glide private app, where access is controlled by list of email addresses in the user sheet; all intended users of this feature will have already installed and authenticated to the Glide app by the time they try to use the deep link. And Iā€™m using bitly to shorten the url. All constructive comments welcome!
