I am looking for a way to retrieve the universal link full URL inside my swift app.

• My universal link setup is (I think) complete in that clicking a link in Safari opens my app in the emulator.
• My app is handling 100% of the functionality of the associated domain (app.mycompany.io)

Here is my apple-app-site-association:

$ curl https://app.mycompany.io/.well-known/apple-app-site-association
{
  "applinks": {
      "details": [
           {
             "appIDs": [ "ABCD1234.io.mybundle" ],
             "paths": [
                "*"
             ],
             "components": [
               {"/": "/*"}
             ]
           }
       ]
   }
}

Here is the main classes for my app:

struct MyApp: App {
    @UIApplicationDelegateAdaptor(AppDelegate.self) var appDelegate
    @ObservedObject var model = MyAppModel()
    
    var body: some Scene {
        return WindowGroup() {
           ...
        }
    }
}

class AppDelegate: NSObject, UIApplicationDelegate {
    func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey : Any]? = nil) -> Bool {

        // Here I initialize my app     
        return true
    }
    
    func application(_ application: UIApplication, continue userActivity: NSUserActicity, restorationHandler: @escaping ([UIUserActivityRestoring]?) -> Void) -> Bool {
      // Here I thought I could grab the universal link clicked to act accordingly
      return true
    }
}

My problem is that the second function in my AppDelegate class never gets called. Not when I launch the app from the home screen, not when I launch the app when clicking in a link (mail or Safari) nor when I put the app back in the focus after it being in the background when clicking a link.

I need a way to extract the link that was clicked to know what my app is supposed to do:

• At startup upon a click on a universal link
• Also when a link is clicked and brings the app in the foreground
