How to click a button to jump to the third-party software Line?

We often hope that customers will click the landing page button on browsers, emails, Douyin, Zhihu, SMS, and other platforms to jump to and add friends in the LINE app, and we may configure multiple LINE accounts to achieve random customer service switching. Therefore, this tutorial helps you achieve this function.

I. How to Create a Jump to LINE Landing Page in a Browser?

We use DoveURL to achieve the redirection from the advertising landing page to LINE. The specific production tutorial is as follows:

• 1. Register and log in to the DoveURL backend;
• 2. In Link Management - Create Link, select the type as LINE;
• 3. Upon completion of creation, you can upload your LINE QR code - support for updating/deleting LINE customer service accounts at any time;
• 4. Create the advertising landing page link - using the link allows you to achieve a jump to LINE by clicking a button.

If you are developing an Android or iOS application and hope that users can jump to the LINE app by clicking a button, you can use deep linking or the URI Scheme method. However, this requires the LINE app to support this jump mechanism, and you need to know the URI Scheme of LINE (e.g., line://).

1. Android Platform: In your Android project, set a click event listener for the button. In the click event handler, construct an Intent with its Action set to Intent.ACTION_VIEW and Data set to the LINE URI Scheme plus the specific page or function you want to jump to (if supported). Start this Intent, and the system will attempt to open the LINE app and jump to the specified page or function.
2. iOS Platform: In your iOS project, set a click event handler for the button. In the click event handler, use the UIApplication.shared.open(URL:options:completionHandler:) method, where URL is the LINE URI Scheme plus the string for the specific page or function you want to jump to, converted to a URL object. The system will attempt to open the LINE app and jump to the specified page or function.

In Web Development

If your application is a web application and you want users to be able to jump to the LINE app by clicking a button (assuming the LINE app is already installed on the user's device), you can use a custom URI Scheme, but this usually requires support from the LINE app, and users need to configure corresponding jump rules on their devices. However, this method is not common as most modern web applications prefer to use URL redirection or guide users to download the app through the app store.

A more practical method is to guide users to open the official LINE page or a specific feature page through their device's browser. For example, you can use an <a> tag with the URL of the official LINE page and style it to look like a button, or you can use JavaScript to trigger this jump.

In Mini Program Development

If you are developing a mini program and hope that users can jump to a LINE mini program by clicking a button (assuming LINE supports mini programs and you have access to the LINE mini program platform), you need to follow the development documentation and API provided by the LINE mini program platform. This usually involves using specific APIs or components provided by the LINE mini program to achieve the jump.

However, to my knowledge, the LINE mini program platform and the WeChat mini program platform are independent, and jumps between them are not directly supported. If you want to jump from a mini program to the LINE app (rather than a LINE mini program), you may need to guide users to open the LINE app through the device's app store or provide a QR code for users to scan to open the LINE app.
