Browser URL schemes – Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Developers

Today I had a very specific requirement. Using the resco mobile app on iOS and android, I had to open a dynamic generated URL in a specific browser on the client.

To solve the problem, I created a command in resco and added the button to the form (straight forward). But if you click the button, the system automatically opens the default browser.

Using android, you can set the default browser, used by the operating system. But on iOS, there is no way, to set the default browser.

After some digging, I found out, that there are different “browser url schemes”. Based on these scheme, you can force the operating system, to open a URL in a specific browser.

I added a table with examples and the scheme:

Browser	Scheme	Link (Open Url in …)
Chrome	googlechrome	Chrome
	googlechromes	Chrome (httpsS)
Safari	safari-httpss	Safari
Firefox	firefox	Firefox
Opera	opera-httpss	Opera
Microsoft Edge	microsoft-edge	Microsoft Edge
vmWare WorkspaceOne Web	awb	AirWatch Browser (vmWare Web)
	awbs	AirWatch Browser (vmWare Web) (httpsS)
