How to create a deeplink (or QR code) to a communication?

It is possible to create a direct link to a communication so that it does not get lost in the newsfeed, and so that it is easily accessible for learners.

On the Mission Center homepage, click on Communications.

On mouse-overing the communication, click on the link icon:

Once clicked, the link is automatically copied to the clipboard and the following window appears:

: click to be redirected to the link address

: click to copy the link address again

: click to download the QR code

 What is the behavior of these direct links?

• On a phone with the App installed, the App will be launched and the learner will be redirected to the content
• On a phone that does not have the App installed, the Webapp will be launched but the home screen will invite the learner to install the App (Webapp screen by default if the screen is too small)
• On a non-mobile device, the Webapp will be launched and the learner will be invited to connect
• Limitation: It is currently not possible to have a link to a communication from inside a web activity. We recommend to create a separate web link activity instead.
