Angular Universal Links (Android / IOS) Asset Linking and apple-app-site-association

Question

Hey I am having some trouble getting my apple app association file to display correctly. When you go to the url www.example.com/apple-app-site-association it downloads the file instead of displaying it on the webpage.

any suggestions on how this can be handled in Angular?

Thanks!!

Answer 1

My Angular App is deployed on Azure. The following line of code in web.config has done the deep-linking trick for me and it opens in browser.

    <staticContent>
      <mimeMap fileExtension="." mimeType="application/json" />
    </staticContent>

I hope it helps.
