Application Deep Links

MobileHMI (specifically MobileHMI v10.96 for iOS and Android) provides several ways to open displays from outside of the application itself, including the use of application deep links.

Version	Icograph (Icograph Scheme-Pre 10.96, Backward compatible)	Mhmi/s (MHMI Scheme)
10.96.0	Android/iOS/UWP	Android/iOS
10.96.1	Android/iOS/UWP	Android/iOS
10.96.2	Android/iOS/UWP	Android/iOS/UWP

Deep links rely on classic URL syntax. The payload is encoded in a URL query string and/or host name. The target application is then identified by the URL scheme. The application must be installed on a device. Otherwise, deep linking will not work.

MobileHMI supports two deep link formats:

Deep Link Format

<scheme>://<host>/anyglass/<display-path>

Scheme – com.iconics.mhmi, com.iconics.mhmis. Scheme ending “s” resolves to https connection.
display-path – path to the display

Examples:

com.iconics.mhmi://mobilehmi.com/anyglass/tests/mydisplay.gdfx

translates to:

http://mobilehmi.com/anyglass/tests/mydisplay.gdfx

---

com.iconics.mhmis://mobilehmi.com/anyglass/tests/mydisplay.gdfx

translates to:

https://mobilehmi.com/anyglass/tests/mydisplay.gdfx

Pre-10.96 Link Format

This earlier format can be used within the version 10.96 iOS and Android MobileHMI app.

<scheme>://<host>/?ConfigUrl=<display-uri>&LayoutId=<id>&PageTitle=<title>

Scheme – icograph, icoasset, icotrend, icoalarm
Host – host name (e.g. mobilehmi.com)
Display-uri – URL to display. MUST be url encoded. (e.g. https:%2F%2Fmobilehmi.com%2FPubDisplay%2FOilGas_New%2FLoadManual.gdfxp)
Id – MobileHMI AppHub layout id (unused in iOS, Android)
PageTitle – title listed in AppHub application (unused in iOS, Android).
