You can link to just about any screen or view in your app right from the Dashboard! With the proper formatting of link URLs, you can direct your users to events, sermons, opportunities, General Content Engine posts, and more. You can use these links anywhere in your dashboard or in “Link” type fields in the PocketPlatform pages in the Platform. 

Use the examples below to format your app links. Note: Most links end with the ID of a MinistryPlatform record. You can find this ID by opening a record in the Platform and looking in the title bar (see example screenshot). Be sure to add your specific IDs to each link.

Events & Opportunity App Links

Linking directly to Events and Opportunities provides a simple, customized experience for your Users. But directing users to these URLs without instructions can be confusing. So help your users out by providing detailed instructions about the destination and what to do when they get there. For example, if the link takes someone to an Event for registration, include helpful language like, "Tap think to learn more, then select Sign Up to register".
