Deeplink with dynamic paths not resolving my activity

Here is an exemple of the link:
https://somelink.someotherlink.ws/path1/path2/path3/path4/dynamic_path1/dynamic_path2
<activity
android:name=".activite.Activity"
android:exported="true">
<tools:validation testUrl="https://somelink.someotherlink.ws/path1/path2/path3/path4/..*/..*/"/>
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<data
android:scheme="https"
android:host="somelink.someotherlink.ws"
android:pathPattern="/path1/path2/path3/path4/..*/..*/" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
So here when I run the test from the android studio tool the url is resolving my activity and also launching it.
This also is working when clicking this url link from other apps
But only when it comes to web browser (Entering the link in the search bar and click enter or any other programatic redirection) the redirection not going to my app.
Ex:
https://somelink.someotherlink.ws/path1/path2/path3/path4/dynamic_path1/dynamic_path2
this is not getting resolved in anyway
I've also tried to use the two dot enforcement and single dot enforcement but getting same result.
Thanks for any help.

open Url in android in web browser application

I am working on a Web browser. The web browser is working, but I need help in the part where my Application catches Android system's url when clicked (http,https etc) and open my web browser application
Like any other browser chrome ,firefox etc, how these app open the default app choose menu?
Reading about these I learn about <intent-filter> is used
Can someone help me with what to be added to Manifest file and to my activity so that my Application catches url?

Try adding CATEGORY_BROWSABLE to your activity that can handle URLs.
Like this:
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
<!--This makes activity an option for the default action (center press) to perform
on a piece of data. -->
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<!-- Activities that can be safely invoked from a browser must support this category. -->
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<data
android:scheme="http" />
<data
android:scheme="https" />
</intent-filter>

Android url Scheme not working

I am trying to create an URL scheme for my Android application but when i enter the link in the browser it opens the link not the app. So far my code looks like this. The link is formed like this http://myhost.com .
<activity android:name=".activities.OpenSchemeActivity"
android:label="#string/activity_open_scheme"
android:screenOrientation="portrait"
android:exported="true"
android:launchMode="singleTask">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<data android:scheme="http" android:host="myhost.com"/>
</intent-filter>
</activity>
Does anyone have any idea why is not working?

Sorry to say that it will NOT work directly from the browser's address bar. No way. Only further server redirects or link clicks can lead you to an app picker. As far as I know, browser doesn't handle URL schemes being typed into address bar as something that could require an Intent call.

How do I get a domain link to open my app on android?

The following works fine:
I click on the link www.mycompany.com in an email and it starts my app:
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE"/>
<data android:host="www.mycompany.com/download" android:scheme="http"/>
</intent-filter>
However, what I want to work is as below but it's not working:
I want to be able to restrict it to the link www.mycompany.com/download:
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<data android:host="www.mycompany.com/download" android:scheme="http" />
</intent-filter>
Why the distinction? I don't want to block my entire website with the app. I just want that specific domain to redirect to the app. How do I do that?

What you've shown is not a subdomain. That is,
www.mycompany.com/download
is not a subdomain of
www.mycompany.com
But you could use a subdomain to address this issue by setting up something like
download.mycompany.com
and have it map to www.mycompany.com/download. (Most servers allow you to set up subdomains like that.) You can then modify the intent filter accordingly.
EDIT
To support what you're trying to do without setting up a subdomain, you can do the following:
<data
android:host="www.mycompany.com"
android:scheme="http"
android:pathPrefix="download"
/>

I would suggest you to try latest feature made available by Google and that is App-indexing to show your app even when user search about your website on Google.
You need to go through 2 steps:
1 Sign Up for this feature here
2 Update your app as well as sitemap of your website as mentioned here
For further reference you can go through this documentation

Open my App with URL - Android

I'm developing an android app.... and I want to open my app when someone types the url in browser.. I'm able to get the "Complete Action Using.." and My app also shows there ONLY when I click the bookmark to the web link.. However if I type the URL in browser it simply loads up the website.. but I want to redirect it to my app.
Here is my code in Manifest file.
<intent-filter>
<data android:scheme="http" android:host="SOME_URL.SOMETHING"/>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>
*SOME_URL.SOMETHING is the name of website to load.
Thanks in Advance :)
