Deep Links: Connect Digital Forms to External Apps and Business Systems

Ever get stuck switching between multiple apps just to finish one task? Open a form, grab some info, switch to another system, hunt for the right page, complete the action… and then go back again. Those extra steps add up fast and slow down productivity.

That’s exactly why we created AppCan’s Deep Link feature.

With Deep Links, you can embed links in your forms taking users straight to the exact screen they need in another application. No more endless menus or searches, just one tap, and they’re right where they need to be.

For example, if your form requires your team to review or update data in another system, the Deep Link takes them directly to that record or page. No wasted time, no extra clicks, just a smooth, seamless transition from one step to the next.

Deep Links also allows AppCan form data to be passed to third-party applications, which means no double entry in the linked app, with data aligned across systems.

And yes, this significantly improves user experience, because field teams can move through tasks in a guided, connected workflow instead of hopping between different applications. Your forms become more than just data capture; they serve as a hub that facilitates access to other software products used to deliver on-site activities.

By cutting down unnecessary navigation time between apps, AppCan Deep Links help teams stay focused, move faster, and get more done. It’s a powerful way to make workflows smoother and more efficient.

There’s a lot to love about this clever feature for you and your teams. Try it out today or contact us for a demo.
