adb - Android Deep Linking with multiple query parameters

Question

I'm trying to deep link my app and have implemented the following in my AndroidManifest.xml to open the proper activity.

<activity
    android:name=".ui.activities.MyActivity"
    android:label="@string/title_activity"
    android:screenOrientation="portrait">
    <!-- ATTENTION: This intent was auto-generated. Follow instructions at
    https://g.co/AppIndexing/AndroidStudio to publish your Android app deep links. -->
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />

        <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
        <!-- ATTENTION: This data URL was auto-generated. We recommend that you use the HTTP scheme.
        TODO: Change the host or pathPrefix as necessary. -->
        <data
            android:host="myHost"
            android:scheme="myCustomScheme" />
    </intent-filter>
</activity>

And I'm testing the activity from adb using

adb shell am start -W -a android.intent.action.VIEW -d "myCustomScheme://myHost?key=category_parent_id&value=92&title=test" com.myApp.android

The Activity is opening but the URI which is passed to the activity in the intent is only

myCustomScheme://myHost?key=category_parent_id

Its skipping everything after '&'

I did look up here on SO but didn't find anything with multiple query parameters.

Answer 1

Just add before & sign when testing with adb.

Copy this:

adb shell am start -W -a android.intent.action.VIEW -d "myCustomScheme://myHost?key=category_parent_id&value=92&title=test" com.myApp.android
