How would you go about doing this? I’ve not been able to find a public example of this being done, anyone know?

This is just the link mentioned above, without the launch data parameters:
https://www.roblox.com/games/start?placeId=6900305353
You can just replace the placeid
Deeplinking stopped working all of a suddent. It now only take you to Home page instead of entering game. Any idea when it can be fixed? @goldzun

As outact_gun said above, my team noticed that deeplinks no longer work. We tried on both desktop and mobile, and both don’t work anymore. The Roblox app is opened, but it is not joining the game.
Looking into the deeplinks not working, thanks for flagging!
@outact_gun @homermafia1 can you share the links that arent working with me? Feel free to DM me as well
Thanks for noticing the problem.
Any deeplink does not open the game, but here is an example with my game:
https://www.roblox.com/games/start?placeId=155382109&launchData=1
Nothing particular happens upon joining the game with this link however.

Can also confirm that this is not working for me, instead just opening to the Roblox App. https://www.roblox.com/games/start?placeId=7729521253

Example links in your original post are also not working anymore.

Link 2 - roblox://placeId=6900305353&launchData=%7B%22roomId%22%3A%202%7D

The problem looks solved. Thanks for the intervention.
Problem solved. Thank you very much!
Issue is still occuring using the following URL https://www.roblox.com/games/start?placeId=7729521253
Looking into the generic experience join start link not working.
For now, you can append an arbitrary launchdata parameter to get it to work.
https://www.roblox.com/games/start?placeId=7729521253&launchData=1 will get the place to open up.

The URL is now working however I am getting the below issue, despite me having full access to the game & it being public (I have dev perms on the game too so privacy shouldnt be an issue?)

this feature is really great and it really helps with automatizing, however,
when is this going to roll out for iOS?
it’s great using it, but iOS users are missing out on this feature, which is the only reason I cannot use this for my games for everyone to use. (ex. game events would be great this way, but then iOS users could never join)

Link 1 method works on both PC & Android devices, however on IOS, it does not. Therefore I have tried to use the AppsFlyer link (which works on PC and Android) and it just opens the app store on IOS even though Roblox is already installed.

Is it possible currently, or are there plans in the future, to add deeplinking for editing Roblox Studio places?
This would greatly help the cause for continuous integration, as well as increase clarity and communicative efficiency between developers by reducing accidental/unwanted overwrites, directing them to editing places from the click of a URL.

Hello @goldzun, my group tried to test this update today by doing a group announcement using the new link format, but it seems that the new link format is completely censored on the website. I hope this can be fixed soon because as of right now, this new deeplinking update is completely unusable on Roblox itself. Thanks
