Description:
Learn how to use the Fulcrum mobile app’s custom URL scheme to programmatically open the app, create or edit records, and pass parameters for automation and deep linking.
Overview
Fulcrum’s mobile applications for Android and iOS support a custom URL scheme that allows users and developers to programmatically launch the app and perform specific actions using fulcrumapp:// links.
This functionality enables deep integration between Fulcrum and external systems, such as third-party apps, web dashboards, or automation tools. By leveraging URL actions, you can open the Fulcrum app directly to a specific app, record, or form—making workflows faster and more seamless for field users.
Supported Capabilities
You can use URL Actions to:
Open the Fulcrum app directly from another app or browser.
Create a new record in a specific app.
Edit an existing record by passing its record ID.
Pass parameters such as field values or location data to prefill records.
Trigger app interactions without requiring manual navigation.
Please refer to the mobile URL Actions developer documentation for additional information regarding parameters, supported field types, validation, and examples.
