Hello,
We release an App Clip back in December 2020, and everything was working just fine for the longest time. However, sometime relatively recently, not exactly sure when it started, the Domain URL Status started showing this “Cannot Reach AASA File” error; and consequently, the App Clip invocation fails now.
The API Validation Tool is saying “Error cannot parse app site association file” as the reason.
We have not made any changes in the App / App Clip, and the associated domain is still set as appclips:mobileapp.caesars.com
The Apple App Site Association file hasn’t been changed either, and the format still matches that specified on https://developer.apple.com/documentation/app_clips/associating_your_app_clip_with_your_website.
The AASA file returns no problem in a browser and from curl command as you can see below:

Again, this was all working without any problems and just suddenly stopped for some reason without any apparent explanation. I’ve looked at similar issues reported in the forums with no luck helping solve this issue yet. Any guidance/help would be greatly appreciated!
