Summary:
This is a duplicate of rdar://21387804

The iOS 9 “universal links” system allows applications to specify “associated domains,” domains whose links the application can intercept. These domains look as follows; please note that a separate entry is required for each specific subdomain:

applinks:sharefile.com
applinks:www.sharefile.com

ShareFile uses a different subdomain for each distinct account, e.g. an account can be found at “https://rdarexample.sharefile.com”

In order to open account links in the native ShareFile app, we would need to be able to specify a wildcarded associated domain as follows:

applinks:*.sharefile.com

Steps to Reproduce:
Try using an asterisk to specify a wildcarded associated domain (e.g. “*.sharefile.com”) for universal links.

Expected Results:
Links to any subdomain under the domain (e.g. “rdarexample.sharefile.com”) would be routed to the third-party application.

Actual Results:
Links to subdomains open in Safari.

iOS 9
