Sengrid Magic Link Integration + Deep Links

Josh Chambers

Hey Xano, 

I'm asking Sendgrid this question as well.

Referencing this process: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oya-BvMZyqU

When using a deep link/universal link (i.e. expo://), the link does not populate in the Sendgrid email. It seems to only recognize web URLs. In other words, if the link I add to Xano's Sendgrid configuration (magic_link_redirect_uri) does not start with "http" the link will not populate in Sendgrid. 

It would seem Xano is sending the info correctly based on the API results, but have you all run into this before?

I hadn't personally run into it before but please keep us posted on what Sendgrid says - sounds like an issue with their deep links.

Hey , I've been doing a bit more research, and it turns out that SendGrid doesn't seem capable of converting an deep link into an href. It just flat out doesn't recognize it. I'm still learning, but it seems they might need another app integration to pull that off. Which...is rather lame of them IMHO.

 thanks for following up. Agreed - that is certainly a bummer, I'd hope they'd add that capability

Hi Josh, were you able to solve this? Stuck at the same gate :/
