My Issue/Suggestion

Issue 1:
You reference an entity called "Parameter," but this entity does not exist by default. Users must create it themselves and assign the appropriate permissions.

Issue 2:
While this page describes what Deeplinks are, it lacks detailed information on their functionality. It mentions that deep links will open the app, but the primary purpose of using deep links, which is opening a specific page via a URL, is not adequately addressed.

In Chapter 4, the following statement is made:
"If you skip this section, the links to your app will just open the app. Nothing will be done with the additional data available in your URL."

However, the chapter fails to explain how to open a specific page using the additional data present in the URL. It merely displays a message with some parameters, which may not align with the user's expectations when working with deep links.

It would be beneficial to provide practical use cases, such as opening the details of an invoice based on the invoice number (using query parameters).

Currently, additional research is required to understand how to use deep links more naturally. In conclusion, this knowledge base lacks sufficient clarity.

Hi @ricoroodenburg Thank you for your detailed feedback. I will investigate.
By the way, are you using Mendix 9 or 10? Because if you are using Mendix 10, you can now use page URLs and microflow URLs instead of Deep Link, which is deprecated from Studio Pro 10.6.0.
