Hi all,

I wonder if anyone can shed any light or tips on this.

We have our iOS app which is just for iPhone at the moment. I have some universal links that are currently working. I have added another '/mobileAppQuickLink' into the file and updated on our site in the '.well-known' folder location.

The issue I am having is, all of the links before the additional one mentioned above are working.

Steps Checked

Checked https://app-site-association.cdn-apple.com/a/v1/OUR_DOMAIN to make sure the latest AASA file is there, it is.
Checked the sysdiagnosis package logs and can see in the 'swcutil_show.txt' that only the original three are there for the app and not the final one.
Reinstalled the app multiple time to bring down the AASA, no luck.
Wiped a device and reset, downloaded the app again, no luck.

The code below is the AASA file with our app ID redacted. I have triple checked these and they haven't changed from the previous.

   "applinks": {
      "details": [
         {
            "appIDs": [
               "A646R8---.com.REDACTED.REDACTED"
            ],
            "components": [
               {
                  "#": "no_universal_links",
                  "exclude": true,
                  "comment": "Matches any URL with a fragment that equals no_universal_links and instructs the system not to open it as a universal link."
               },
               {
                  "/": "/client/*",
                  "comment": "Matches any URL with a path that starts with /client/."
               },
               {
                  "/": "/files/*",
                  "comment": "Matches any URL with a path that starts with /files/."
               },
               {
                  "/": "/signingRequests/*",
                  "comment": "Matches any URL with a path that starts with /signingRequests/."
               },
               {
                  "/": "/mobileAppQuickLink" //MISSING ON DEVICE
               }
            ]
         }
      ]
   },
   "webcredentials": {
      "apps": [
         "A646R8----com.REDACTED.REDACTED"
      ]
   }
}

Below is a copy of one of the 'swcutil_show.txt' from a device.

Does anyone know of any reason this could be? It looks like the devices maybe getting a cached version.

Does anyone know how I can log this with apple support without having a focused test project to pass over? The file being downloaded seems specific to the devices and not my app. Not sure where to go with this at the moment. Thanks
