Deeplinks automations

Purchasely supports the use of Deeplinks to trigger different actions to improve conversion, retention and upsell. You can send a Push or an email with that deeplink and Purchasely will open the requested presentation or page for you.

Here are the actions Purchasely supports:

Display a product page (paywall)
Display the user subscriptions
Display the cancellation survey
Update credit card (Deeplink to App Store)

Integration

To integrate these automations you need 2 things:

Pass the deeplink to Purchasley when it is received by the application
Allow Purchasely to display content over your interface

Pass the Deeplink to Purchasely

The first thing you need to do is to pass the deeplink URL to Purchasely when your app receives it:

// ---------------------------------------------------
// If you are **NOT** using SceneDelegate
// ---------------------------------------------------

// AppDelegate.swift

import Purchasely

func application(_ application: UIApplication, open url: URL, sourceApplication: String?, annotation: Any) -> Bool {
	// You can chain calls to multiple handler using a OR
	return Purchasely.handle(deeplink: url) 
}

// ---------------------------------------------------
// If you are using SceneDelegate
// ---------------------------------------------------

// SceneDelegate.swift

import Purchasely

func scene(_ scene: UIScene, willConnectTo session: UISceneSession, options connectionOptions: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) {

	// …

	if let url = connectionOptions.urlContexts.first?.url {
		_ = Purchasely.handle(deeplink: url)
	}
}

func scene(_ scene: UIScene, openURLContexts URLContexts: Set<UIOpenURLContext>) {
	if let url = URLContexts.first?.url {
		_ = Purchasely.handle(deeplink: url)
	}
}

// ---------------------------------------------------
// If you are **NOT** using SceneDelegate
// ---------------------------------------------------

// AppDelegate.m

#import <Purchasely/Purchasely-Swift.h>

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)app openURL:(NSURL *)url options:(NSDictionary<UIApplicationOpenURLOptionsKey,id> *)options {
	// You can chain calls to multiple handler using a OR
	return [Purchasely handleWithDeeplink:url];
}

// ---------------------------------------------------
// If you are using SceneDelegate
// ---------------------------------------------------

// SceneDelegate.m

#import <Purchasely/Purchasely-Swift.h>

- (void)scene:(UIScene *)scene willConnectToSession:(UISceneSession *)session options:(UISceneConnectionOptions *)connectionOptions {

	// …

	NSURL *url = connectionOptions.URLContexts.allObjects.firstObject.URL;
	if (url != nil) {
		[Purchasely handleWithDeeplink:url];
	}
}

- (void)scene:(UIScene *)scene openURLContexts:(NSSet<UIOpenURLContext *> *)URLContexts {
	NSURL *url = URLContexts.allObjects.firstObject.URL;
	if (url != nil) {
		[Purchasely handleWithDeeplink:url];
	}
}

class MyActivity : FragmentActivity() {

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        
        //retrieve intent data to get deeplink that opened your activity
        val data = intent.data
        if(data != null) {
            //Purchasely sdk will return true if it handles the deeplink
            val isHandledByPurchasely = Purchasely.handle(data)
        }
    }    

}

public class MyActivity extends FragmentActivity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        //retrieve intent data to get deeplink that opened your activity
        Uri data = getIntent().getData();
        if(data != null) {
            //Purchasely sdk will return true if it handles the deeplink
            boolean isHandledByPurchasely = Purchasely.handle(data);
        }
    }
}

Allow display

Your app might have a launch routine that requires to be fulfilled before another screen can be displayed. It can be splash screen, on boarding, login …

The display of Purchasely deeplinks is deferred until you authorize it. Once your app is ready, notify Purchasely.

Purchasely.isReadyToPurchase(true)

Get presentation result

When a deeplink is called, as you don't instanciate the paywall yourself, no closure will be called to tell you what happened. You can retrieve the result of the user action in a paywall opened with a deeplink by setting a DefaultPresentationResultHandler.

Purchasely.setDefaultPresentationResultHandler { [weak self](result, plan) in
    switch result {
        case .purchased:
            break
        case .restored:
            break
        case .cancelled:
            break
        @unknown default:
				    break
    }
}

[Purchasely setDefaultPresentationResultHandler:^(enum PLYProductViewControllerResult result, PLYPlan * _Nullable plan) {
	switch (result) {
		case PLYProductViewControllerResultPurchased:
			break;
		case PLYProductViewControllerResultRestored:
			break;
		case PLYProductViewControllerResultCancelled:
			break;
		default:
			break;
	}
}];

Purchasely.setDefaultPresentationResultHandler { result, plan ->
    /* You can set a callback to know when your user purchased a product */
    when(result) {
        PLYProductViewResult.PURCHASED -> Log.d("Purchasely", "Purchased $plan")
        PLYProductViewResult.CANCELLED ->  Log.d("Purchasely", "Cancelled purchase of $plan")
        PLYProductViewResult.RESTORED -> Log.d("Purchasely", "Restored $plan")
    }
}

Purchasely.setDefaultPresentationResultHandler(new ProductViewResultListener() {
    @Override
    public void onResult(@NotNull PLYProductViewResult result, @org.jetbrains.annotations.Nullable PLYPlan plan) {
        /* You can set a callback to know when your user purchased a product */
        switch (result) {
            case PURCHASED:
                break;
            case CANCELLED:
                break;
            case RESTORED:
                break;
        }
    }
});

Purchasely.setDefaultPresentationResultCallback((result) => {
  console.log('Presentation View Result : ' + result.result);

  if (result.plan != null) {
    console.log('Plan Vendor ID : ' + result.plan.vendorId);
    console.log('Plan Name : ' + result.plan.name);
  }
});

Purchasely.setDefaultPresentationResultHandler((result) => {
	console.log("Presentation View Result: " + result.result);

	if (result.plan != null) {
		console.log("Plan Vendor ID: " + result.plan.vendorId);
		console.log("Plan Name:  " + result.plan.name);
	}
});

Purchasely.setDefaultPresentationResultCallback(
          (PresentPresentationResult value) {
  print('Presentation Result : ' + value.result.toString());

  if (value.plan != null) {
    //User bought a plan
  }
});

The callback PLYProductViewControllerResult(iOS) / ProductViewResultListener (Android) is optional, you can set to null if you do not need it. You can override it when you display a presentation directly.

Supported deeplinks

Product

You can open a product presentation directly to the user with the default presentation or a specific one used for a specific purpose / promotion.

⚠️ This kind of push requires users opt-in (see App Store Review Guidelines - 4.5.4).

Cancellation survey

Cancellation survey can be triggered to get some feedback by the user after a subscription cancellation.

app_scheme://ply/cancellation_survey

app_scheme://ply/cancellation_survey/PRODUCT_VENDOR_ID
