Branch for Cordova/PhoneGap/Ionic

Travis npm downloads npm version npm version

URLs can navigate to your website, but not to your app. Branch fixes this with deep links.

Branch will grow your app by allowing users to install, open, and navigate to content inside your app.

Increase discovery of your app by sharing its content, converting web users to app users, enabling user-to-user sharing, personalizing user experiences, tracking users, tracking referrals, tracking campaigns, tracking conversions, and increasing overall engagement.

Features

  • #### Initialize Branch Features

    • Loads Branch into your app

    • Must be called on deviceready and resume

      // for development and debugging only
      Branch.setDebug(true)
       
      // for better Android matching
      Branch.setCookieBasedMatching('cordova.app.link')
       
      // Branch initialization
      Branch.initSession(function(data) {
        if (data['+clicked_branch_link']) {
          // read deep link data on click
          alert('Deep Link Data: ' + JSON.stringify(data))
        }
      });

  • #### Create Content Reference

    • Link Data: Universal Object Properties

      // only canonicalIdentifier is required
      var properties = {
        canonicalIdentifier: 'content/123',
        canonicalUrl: 'https://example.com/content/123',
        title: 'Content 123 Title',
        contentDescription: 'Content 123 Description ' + Date.now(),
        contentImageUrl: 'http://lorempixel.com/400/400/',
        price: 12.12,
        currency: 'GBD',
        contentIndexingMode: 'private',
        contentMetadata: {
          custom: 'data',
          testing: 123,
          this_is: true
        }
      }
       
      // create a branchUniversalObj variable to reference with other Branch methods
      var branchUniversalObj = null
      Branch.createBranchUniversalObject(properties).then(function (res) {
        branchUniversalObj = res
        alert('Response: ' + JSON.stringify(res))
      }).catch(function (err) {
        alert('Error: ' + JSON.stringify(err))
      })

  • #### Create Deep Link

    • Verify on the Branch Dashboard

      // optional fields
      var analytics = {
        channel: 'facebook',
        feature: 'onboarding',
        campaign: 'content 123 launch',
        stage: 'new user',
        tags: ['one', 'two', 'three']
      }
       
      // optional fields
      var properties = {
        $desktop_url: 'http://www.example.com/desktop',
        $android_url: 'http://www.example.com/android',
        $ios_url: 'http://www.example.com/ios',
        $ipad_url: 'http://www.example.com/ipad',

      branchUniversalObj.generateShortUrl(analytics, properties).then(function (res) {
        alert('Response: ' + JSON.stringify(res.url))
      }).catch(function (err) {
        alert('Error: ' + JSON.stringify(err))
      })

  • #### Share Deep Link

    • Will generate a Branch deep link and tag it with the channel the user selects

    • Needs a Branch Universal Object

    • Link Data: Deep Link Properties

      // optional fields
      var analytics = {
        channel: 'facebook',
        feature: 'onboarding',
        campaign: 'content 123 launch',
        stage: 'new user',

      }
       
      var message = 'Check out this link'
       
      // optional listeners (must be called before showShareSheet)
      branchUniversalObj.onShareSheetLaunched(function (res) {
        // android only

    • Listener

      // Branch initialization within your deviceready and resume
      Branch.initSession(function(deepLinkData) {
        if (data['+clicked_branch_link']) {
          // handler for deep link data on click
          alert('Response: ' + JSON.stringify(deepLinkData))
        }
      })

    • First data

      Branch.getFirstReferringParams().then(function(res) {
        alert('Response: ' + JSON.stringify(res))
      }).catch(function(err) {
        alert('Error: ' + JSON.stringify(err))

  • #### Handle Referrals

    • Referral points are obtained from events triggered by users from rules created on the Branch Dashboard

    • Verify on the Branch Dashboard

    • Get credits

    • Spend credits

      var amount = 10
      var bucket = 'this_bucket'
      Branch.redeemRewards(amount, bucket).then(function (res) {
        alert('Response: ' + JSON.stringify(res))
      }).catch(function (err) {
        alert('Error: ' + JSON.stringify(err))
      })
      var amount = 10
      Branch.redeemRewards(amount).then(function (res) {

  • #### Testing: Branch Analytics

    • Whenever a user clicks on a deep link and opens the app, and will trigger either an install or an open

    • installs represent Branch recognizing the app_id and device_id for the first time

    • installs represent new app users and the success rate of your Branch deep links

    • installs do not represent App Store downloads

    • non-Branch installs are installs outside of Branch deep link clicks

    • opens are non-installs

    • If a user uninstalls and reinstalls the app, this will be an open because Branch recognizes the device

    • If a user has the app and clicks a Branch deep link, this will be an open because the user is not new

  • #### Testing: Simulating an Install

    • Delete your app

    • [iOS] iPhone Device -> Settings -> Privacy -> Advertising -> Reset Advertising Identifier -> Reset Identifier

    • [Android] Add <android-testmode value="true" /> to your Config.xml (Testing: Optional App Config)

    • Add Branch.setDebug(true); before Branch.initSession(); (Initialize Branch Features)

    • Click on a deep link to navigate to your $fallback_url because your app is not installed

    • Install your app

    • Open your app

    • Read from Branch.initSession(data) for +is_first_session = true

  • #### Testing: Supported Platforms

    • Apps which support Branch deep links

    • Analytics

      Key Default Usage
      channel Use channel to tag the route that your link reaches users. For example, tag links with "Facebook" or "LinkedIn" to help track clicks and installs through those paths separately
      feature This is the feature of your app that the link might be associated with. For example, if you had built a referral program, you would label links with the feature ‘referral’
      campaign Use this field to organize the links by actual campaign. For example, if you launched a new feature or product and want to run a campaign around that
      stage Use this to categorize the progress or category of a user when the link was generated. For example, if you had an invite system accessible on level 1, level 3 and 5, you could differentiate links generated at each level with this parameter
      tags This is a free form entry with unlimited values ["string"]. Use it to organize your link data with labels that don’t fit within the bounds of the above
      alias Specify a link alias in place of the standard encoded short URL e.g. yourdomain.com/youralias. Link aliases are unique, immutable objects that cannot be deleted. You cannot change the alias of existing links. Aliases on the legacy bnc.lt domain are incompatible with Universal Links and Spotlight
      type 0 Set to 1 to limit deep linking behavior of the generated link to a single use. Set type to 2 to make the link show up under Marketing Dashboard while adding $marketing_title to data. Must be an int. Does not work with the Cordova SDK (limitation of native SDKs)
