Deep linking from a Model Driven app to a Canvas app - not working on mobile app

Hi,

I want to create a button in Model Driven app that will redirect the user to a Canvas app, passing parameters in the url. In the web version it's pretty simple, everything works fine when using this template:

https://apps.powerapps.com/play/[appID]?tenantId=[tenantID]?[parameter]=[parametervalue]

However when opening in the mobile app, not only I am asked if I want to open in the browser or the app, but also the canvas app does not recognize the parameter (it is not passed over). I tried using different templates:

ms-apps:///providers/Microsoft.PowerApps/apps/[appID]?[parameter]=[parametervalue]

This one does not open at all - it shows error 404.

Any ideas what am I doing wrong?

Just to add to the above, when opening the second link (which all experts advise as the correct url template) I receive the "This app isn't opening correctly. If the problem continues, the owner might need to republish the app" error (when expanding it shows 404). Session ID is ce4b010e-8609-4a33-9bbf-a450e0f92b40

+1 can't open a canvas app from a model-driven app in the browser. Supplying the format in the first URL you mentioned turns into the 2nd format and a blank page that the browser can't understand.
