Branch Deep Linking not working in Android

See original GitHub issue

Cordova: v6.1.1 Plugin Version: 2.6.14 In Android app, every time I click a deep link, it always return me the following object: { "+clicked_branch_link": false, "+is_first_session": false } Very sometime it works, but 90% of the time it does not work. Although it opens the app correctly, but due to inappropriate data, the right functionality cannot be achieved.

Can you please help me with this?

Hello again,

Thank you all for reporting the issue.

We have narrowed the problem to our Android SDK v2.13.0. This was released 4 days ago (https://github.com/BranchMetrics/android-branch-deep-linking/releases). As long as you have not pushed a version of your app to the Google Play Store in the last 4 days, your users have not been affected.

If you have pushed a new version of your app to the Google Play Store, can you please:

update your /plugins/branch-cordova-sdk/build.gradle
from compile 'io.branch.sdk.android:library:2+'
to compile 'io.branch.sdk.android:library:2.12.2'
push a new version of your app to the Google Play Store
(you might have to rebuild your platform with cordova platform rm android && cordova platform add android as well)

Furthermore, we will push a hotfix to the Branch Cordova SDK later today to mitigate this issue even further.

Again, I apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.

Hey guys - Thanks for letting us know about this issue. I’ve escalated it to engineering internally and we’re looking into it. We believe it’s related to a recent release on the core Android SDK that is not playing nice with Cordova. We’ll keep you updated in this thread.
