What is a URI Scheme?
A URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) scheme defines a method for referencing resources using a specific format. In the context of applications, URI schemes allow developers to create links that launch specific actions or screens within a mobile or web app.
What is a Deep Link?
A deep link is a URL or URI that navigates a user to a specific screen or action within an application, bypassing the generic homepage. For example, a deep link might take a user directly to a particular chat thread or initiate a phone call in the RingCentral app.
Example Usage
rcmobile://sms?number=15551234567
This URI opens a new SMS draft to the number +1 (555) 123-4567 in the RingCentral mobile app.
https://app.ringcentral.com/chat/r?groupid=abc123
This deep link opens a specific team chat identified by abc123 in the RingCentral web app.
