Step 2: Enable Deep Linking in Your App


To allow the Alexa app to redirect the user back to your app after they acknowledge the linking request, you must enable Universal Links for your iOS app or App Links for your Android app. These deep-link-enabled URIs are your app's redirect URLs. The Alexa app and the Login with Amazon (LWA) web page use these URLs to send the user back to your app with the Amazon authorization code.

To enable Universal Links in your iOS app, follow the instructions and examples from Apple at Enabling Universal Links.

Note the domain and path that you configured. You need these values when you add the URIs to the skill configuration in Step 3: Configure Redirect URIs.

To enable Android App Links, follow the instructions from Android at Handling Android App Links. For additional examples, see Create Deep Links to App Content and Verify App Links.

Note the domain and path that you configured. You need these values when you add the URIs to the skill configuration in Step 3: Configure Redirect URIs.
