I have the following apple-app-site-association file uploaded to the .well-known directory on my site. It has the MIME type application/json:

Code Block {
  "applinks": {
    "apps": [],
    "details": [
      {
        "appID": [ "JJVFBTPSYV.com.italictype.Italic-Type" ],
        "paths": ["*", "/"]
      }
    ]
  }
}

Plugging the site (www .italictype.com) into Apples App Search API Validation Tool gives the following error for universal linking: Error cannot parse app site association.

I am not able to get any link to my site to open in the app, either in the simulator or on a device.

Is there something wrong with my apple-app-site-association file that is causing these errors?

I'm not good at app site association, but in some articles in Japanese, it is said:

"apps": [], is not needed
Use "appIDs", instead of "appID"

Can you try?

Did you figure this out? From what I can tell you either want "appIDs": ["JJVFBTPSYV.com.italictype.Italic-Type"] OR "appID": "JJVFBTPSYV.com.italictype.Italic-Type" I see the plural/array more often. But I'm not sure because mine also isn't working.
