Universal Links plist for Intune - managed mode

Hi, we have Universal Links configured, but it only works with public URLs. In our environment we need to use managed mode - we don't have a public domain. We have found out, that we need to set AssociatedDomainsEnableDirectDownloads key in Intune. However we are struggling with the right plist format. Has anyone have it configured correctly?

Hi @PiotrIwanczuk ,

Are you trying to support non-public URLs for your own development (aka for your own employees on a VPN or something to this extent)? You'd then want to use the alternate developer mode like this: applinks:myDomain.com?mode=developer as described here

This allows your server to pull the AASA file from domains that aren't open to the public internet.

If you need managed mode for devices that have an MDM profile installed, then you'd use applinks:myDomain.com?mode=managed

Hi, yes we are trying to support non-public URLs. Correct, the app is in house VPNd app. We tried the developer mode in test setup and it seemed to work. However, we are deploying the from MDM - Intune. We tried using managed mode but following the sysdiagnose, there's no attempt from the device to get the associated domains file from the server. So the question is if we need additional config for Intune to support that? We have found a AssociatedDomainsEnableDirectDownloads key which apparently is supposed to be set in App Config in Intune, but this doesn't seem to work.
