Questions tagged [x-callback-url]

The goal of the x-callback-url specification is to provide a standardized means for iOS developers to expose and document the methods they make available to other apps.

Using x-callback-url’s source apps can launch other apps passing data and context information, and also provide parameters instructing the target app to return data and control back to the source app after executing an action.

Additional information including specification and examples at: x-callback-url.com.
