Branch for deep linking
Branch, a mobile linking platform, helps you acquire, engage, and measure across all devices, channels, and platforms by providing a holistic view of all user touchpoints.

To support sending iOS universal links as deep links from within Braze:

- Implement the
BrazeDelegatemethod braze(_:shouldOpenURL:) in your Braze SDK integration to route universal links from within your app.

Refer to our documentation on Universal links and App Links or see Branch’s documentation to set up deep linking from emails sent through Braze.
