The symphony: URI can be used to launch the Symphony iOS application from another iOS app.

Launch the Symphony iOS app with a chat from another app

symphony://chat_with?username=USERNAME&name=USER_FULL_NAME

• username is the Symphony username of the person with whom the user wants to start/continue a 1-1 chat.

• name is an optional parameter used to specify the first and last name of the person with whom the user wants to start/continue a 1-1 chat. This will be used for a fallback option if no user could be found with the provided username.

symphony://chat_with?username=<john.smith>&name=John%20Smith

When the app is launched with the above URL, the UI should pop to the root view controller (if necessary) and then automatically dive into a 1-1 chat with John Smith.

• If there was an existing 1-1 with the user john.smith, all the conversation history would be expected to be present.

• If there was no existing 1-1 conversation with the user john.smith, a new 1-1 conversation would be created.

• If there was no such user with the username john.smith, the user should be directed to a Global Search on the People tab with the search text field pre-populated with the user's full name.
