Invite links are an optional, easy way to increase your internal testing base by letting users add themselves to your list of app testers. An invite link is a unique URL that lets testers enter their email addresses to sign up to test an app.
There are two types of invite links:
- Invite link to an app, with no group selected
- Invite link to a group
If you use an invite link with a group attached, testers are added to all releases across all apps that the group has access to. If you use an invite link without a group, testers are only added to the latest distributed release of the app which they are invited to test. To learn more about groups, see Add and remove testers from a group.
You create an invite link in the Invite links tab of the
App Distribution page
of the Firebase console. We recommend that you add a domain
restriction and a group. A domain restriction allows only those testers with
an email address matching the domain, for example mycompany.com
, to sign up
to test the app.
