If you’ve configured Android App Links but encounter the following error message in yellow:
“Digital Asset Links Not Accessible
Google needs access to the following URL in order to read the digital asset links for your Android app:
https://app.domainsample.uk/.well-known/assetlinks.json
To ensure Android App Links work as intended, please contact your host to enable access to this URL.”
—
You will need to contact your hosting provider and request them to enable access to the URL stipulated in your error message.
In some cases, your hosting provider or developer may need to manually add the assetlinks.json file to the correct server directory.
To obtain the required Digital Asset Links JSON snippet, follow these steps:
- Go to Google Play Console
- Navigate to Test and Release > Set-up > App Signing
- Locate the JSON snippet under the Digital Asset Links section (ss: https://snipboard.io/DvRtUe.jpg)
Once access is enabled and the assetlinks.json file is correctly set up:
- Generate a new Android release build
- Upload the new build to the Google Play Console > Production track
