Can NavDeepLinkBuilder reuse an existing instance of an Activity instead of creating a new instance?

My end goal is to open a fragment on click of a notification. This answer seemed useful but NavDeepLinkBuilder creates a new instance of the activity which is not what I was looking for.

I also found this method which sends out intents to the existing activity but I'm not sure how to bring up the destination fragment from the activity.

We have the same problem - did you find a solution? – mrbang Aug 06 '21 at 12:44
I believe my understanding of fragments was wrong. Yes, a new activity is created by the `NavDeepLinkBuilder` (with the specified fragment). So I ended up handling the fragment's state in the DB and re-populated it at the time of fragment creation. Lot of extra state handling but no other way (from what I understand). – sprajagopal Aug 06 '21 at 16:09
