If(/MSIE \d|Trident.*rv:/.test(navigator.See the comment by user kerma at this related StackFlow article First check if the user agent is Trident (IE) This is useful because with IE11 sunsetting now, and Edge being a viable alternative, you can check to see if the browser is running IE 11, and then automatically open the page in Edge, where it would be properly supported. The new Chromium Edge has one of these protocols – microsoft-edge: Which will open a link in an Edge window. So under the settings, I have a bunch of apps set up: I prefer to set up Choosy such that it never asks me what browser to use, it just does it based on rules. The trick isn’t to alter the links themselves, but to react to links that you know are Notion links by redirecting them to open in Notion.app. I just wanted to note a method I think works nicely for me. Thomas goes super deep on this with methods to alter the content of clipboard to replace Notion links with the custom scheme. That’s great that the native scheme is essentially the same as the web scheme, aside from the name. Thomas Frank, “How to Share Notion Links That Open Directly in the App” If you replace the of any Notion page link with notion://, your link will automatically open within the native app instead of a web browser. Geoff shared with me an article the other day that documents how easy it is to make an application’s browser URL open up in the native app instead:įortunately, Notion’s dev team thought about that, and built the notion:// link protocol. ![]() It’s Electron, so it’s still a web app I guess, but I don’t use it from my web browser, I use it from the application Notion.app on my literal machine. That’s fine, and works to open that Notion page in the browser. When I grab the URL to a Notion page, which I do regularly to share with co-workers, I get a URL like…. I love that the things I work on in these apps have URLs. For example, two that I use nearly every day: Notion and Figma. I find that custom URL schemes come up the most with apps that are both web apps and native apps. You can actually make your own, which is pretty cool. ![]() You’re probably familiar with the concept, thanks to others that come up in front-end development, like mailto. You know like https:? That’s a URL Scheme. ![]()
