I need to pass info into my Unity/Android game (apk) It is being started from a webpage link via intent-filter. The game (or just a dummy app for now), is being started by a link: <a href="myapp://i_need_this_data_in_the_game">click</a>

If you can help, send me a private message and we can work out the details. -eric

I would guess you need a plugin that does getIntent().getData() for your app

Awesome. I was beginning to think the same thing. I guess I was hoping for something more “out of the box”, but I believe your suggestion would be much more road-worthy. Thank you Agent!

After much work and head scratching, I have finally figured this out. In a nutshell what I had to do was this:

  1. Incorporate my Unity game with Eclipse
  2. Set up the proper “” in the AndroidManifest.xml inside my Java project
  3. Grab the intent from within my Java project, along the same lines as Agent_007 pointed out above. However, I used:
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
.....
		Intent intent = getIntent();
		String intentData = intent.getDataString();
.....
  1. Send the resulting string back to Unity:
UnityPlayer.UnitySendMessage("GameObject", "functionName", intentData );
  1. Then, back in Unity, strip out the unnecessary parts of the intentData string.

Now, whenever I update my game, it is a simple copy of the assets folder content into my assets folder in the Java (app) project.

Result, If the player has my game installed, it can be launched directly from a webpage link with all the necessary parameters. :slight_smile:
