Deep links allow you to seamlessly redirect tax firm users to Filed. These links can be used at any time to send users from a specific tax firm to their workspace and specific pages within Filed.

Base URL

https://app.filed.com/sign-in

Format

Recommended approach: Use the workspace slug to ensure customers are routed to the correct workspace:
https://app.filed.com/sign-in?deep_link=/w/{workspaceSlug}/<restofthepath>
Convenience option: If you don’t have the workspace slug available, you can use /w/redirect/ instead:
https://app.filed.com/sign-in?deep_link=/w/redirect/<restofthepath>
Important: Always use the workspace slug format (/w/{workspaceSlug}/) when available to ensure customers are directed to the correct workspace. This prevents routing errors and ensures proper workspace isolation.
The convenience option (/w/redirect/) automatically routes users to the correct workspace based on their authentication. However, using the workspace slug is the recommended approach for reliability.

Parameters

The path within Filed to redirect users to. Must be URL-encoded.Format options:
  • /w/{workspaceSlug}/<restofthepath> - Recommended: Explicitly routes to a specific workspace
  • /w/redirect/<restofthepath> - Convenience: Routes based on user authentication
Examples:
  • /w/smith-associates-tax-firm - Workspace dashboard
  • /w/smith-associates-tax-firm/connect/tax-software - Tax software connection page
  • /w/redirect/connect/tax-software - Tax software connection (convenience format)

Common Redirect Paths

Tax Software Connection Page

Redirect tax firm users to set up tax software connections. Recommended (with workspace slug):
https://app.filed.com/sign-in?deep_link=/w/{workspaceSlug}/connect/tax-software
Example:
https://app.filed.com/sign-in?deep_link=/w/smith-associates-tax-firm/connect/tax-software
Convenience option (without workspace slug):
https://app.filed.com/sign-in?deep_link=/w/redirect/connect/tax-software

Tax Prep Page

Redirect to a specific tax preparation. Recommended (with workspace slug):
https://app.filed.com/sign-in?deep_link=/w/{workspaceSlug}/taxpreps/{taxPrepId}/files
Example:
https://app.filed.com/sign-in?deep_link=/w/smith-associates-tax-firm/taxpreps/prep_123456/files
Convenience option (without workspace slug):
https://app.filed.com/sign-in?deep_link=/w/redirect/taxpreps/{taxPrepId}/files

Workspace Dashboard

Redirect to the main workspace dashboard. Recommended (with workspace slug):
https://app.filed.com/sign-in?deep_link=/w/{workspaceSlug}
Example:
https://app.filed.com/sign-in?deep_link=/w/smith-associates-tax-firm
Convenience option (without workspace slug):
https://app.filed.com/sign-in?deep_link=/w/redirect

Example

// Recommended: Generate deep link with workspace slug
function generateDeepLink(workspaceSlug, path = '') {
  const baseUrl = 'https://app.filed.com/sign-in';
  const deepLink = path 
    ? `/w/${workspaceSlug}${path}`
    : `/w/${workspaceSlug}`;
  
  return `${baseUrl}?deep_link=${encodeURIComponent(deepLink)}`;
}

// Convenience option: Generate deep link without workspace slug (using redirect)
function generateDeepLinkRedirect(path = '') {
  const baseUrl = 'https://app.filed.com/sign-in';
  const deepLink = path 
    ? `/w/redirect${path}`
    : `/w/redirect`;
  
  return `${baseUrl}?deep_link=${encodeURIComponent(deepLink)}`;
}

// Example usage (recommended - with workspace slug)
const workspaceSlug = 'smith-associates-tax-firm';
const integrationLink = generateDeepLink(workspaceSlug, '/connect/tax-software');
const taxPrepLink = generateDeepLink(workspaceSlug, '/taxpreps/prep_123456/files');
const dashboardLink = generateDeepLink(workspaceSlug);

console.log('Integration Link:', integrationLink);
console.log('Tax Prep Link:', taxPrepLink);
console.log('Dashboard Link:', dashboardLink);

// Example usage (convenience - without workspace slug)
// Only use this if you don't have the workspace slug available
const integrationLinkRedirect = generateDeepLinkRedirect('/connect/tax-software');

Notes

  • Deep links can be generated at any time and don’t expire
  • Always URL-encode the deep_link parameter
  • Tax firm users will be prompted to sign in if not already authenticated
  • Use the workspace slug format when available for reliable routing
  • The convenience option (/w/redirect/) relies on user authentication to route to the correct workspace

Troubleshooting

Problem: Deep links not redirecting correctly Solutions:
  • Always use workspace slug format (/w/{workspaceSlug}/) when available to ensure correct routing
  • Verify the workspace slug corresponds to the correct tax firm customer
  • Ensure deep_link parameter is properly URL-encoded
  • Check that the path exists in Filed’s application
  • Double-check that you’re using the correct workspace slug for each tax firm customer
