`attachmentUrl` no longer working

Open simplenotezy opened this issue 2 years ago • 5 comments

We have recently updated our app, and all of a sudden the attachmentUrl is not working anymore. There's simply not a link in the snapchat app, despite being there in a previous version.

I have verified the shared link is what's accepted by the snapchat developer platform (which haven't changed by the way).

We updated other dependencies, but snapkit seems to be stable on version 2, so I am not sure exactly what happened here

@TimmyRB I have verified this is the same for any kind of application who uses Snapchat's attachmentUrl so is not a bug related to this library.

Snapchat seems to have removed the functionality, at least temporarily, from all apps. I find it very strange

@TimmyRB Do you have any ideas?

@simplenotezy I'm tracking this issue here and have scanned all of GitHub, and have found at least 10 implementations of attachmentUrl using Snap's SDK's and they are all the same, so I agree with you.

However, if you download Sendit from the iOS Appstore, you'll see that they have seemed to retain this functionality, which begs the question; Is this now a feature limited to select account at the discretion of Snap?

@Badar25 I am 99% sure this is not a bug, but intentionally done by Snapchat to retaining their users on their own platform

@kingmeers interesting find. they are defiantly affiliated with snapchat somehow.
