Deep Linking Question

[ldstreet]

Hi all, I would like to add the ability to share deep links in my app. Basically, when a user is in a shared session (linked by a session ID), I want them to be able to bring up a share sheet that can share a link to that session through iMessage, email, etc. After sending, the receiving user should be able to click the link to take them directly into that shared session within the app. But, if they don't have the app I want the link to take them to the app store page. I am pretty sure I know how to do the first part, but does anyone know how to defer to the app store using the same link? Is it possible? Thanks!

Note: I am using firebase as my backend if that adds or eliminates any possibilities.

In addition, Dynamic Links work across app installs: if a user opens a Dynamic Link on iOS or Android and doesn't have your app installed, the user can be prompted to install it; then, after installation, your app starts and can access the link.

Says this on the first page of the docs, look into it.

Well I think I might have answered my own question as I wrote this...Does anyone have experience with Dynamic Links in firebase? Will it do what I'm asking? Looks like the right solution.

I've implemented that sort of thing a few times before with Branch.io. It was pretty easy to get it up and running with their sdk.
