Hello.

Can an appโ€™s Install Link and Browser link be retrieved from within the app?

@Christian_Farley2 if you open the app from the browser, you can see the app link for sure. To get the install link, itโ€™s enough to substitute the โ€œstartโ€ with โ€œnewshortcutโ€. But an ordinary user should explicitly be aware of this trick.

@Christian_Farley2 Not automatically, but you could always include it as part of your data or in a virtual column.

There are links in the editorโ€™s User pane. But Iโ€™m guessing you want to have a function like INSTALL_LINK() or something like that?

@praveen Exactly. This would be useful in bluilding an automated mail notification through a workflow rule. I am currently hardcoding it, but If I branch a new version of the app by copying it, the hard coded link is no longer valid.

Ah, look for โ€œBuiltin variablesโ€ in this article. You can use these in a workflow rule. Using _APPID inside a CONCATENATE, you can construct the appropriate URLs. help.appsheet.com - Template Variables Template Variables help.appsheet.com
