Branch links in Snapchat Stories iOS

  • Published on Feb 14, 2025

  • Snap won't let you attach redirecting links to stories. The following work around disables the redirects until you get the link attached, and then re-enables them after you create your story.

    1. Create your Quick Link to be attached to your Snap story

    2. On the Configure Options section, do the following:

      • Add the key $always_deeplink, and the value of false in the Deep Linking tab

      • Enable a Deepview on the iOS platform in the Redirects tab

    3. Attach this link to your Snap story

    4. Come back and edit the Quick Link to:

      • Delete the $always_deeplink key/value from the Deep Linking tab

      • Remove the Deepview on iOS in the Redirects tab
