Legitimate's API can be used to redirect to custom web applications or even native app experiences via two different approaches. This page covers the simple flow when redirecting to another web-based application. For information on native app integration, please refer to Native App Implementation
The Legitimate Tags are pre-programmed to link to the Tap by Legitimate web app that then be configured to redirect to your own website.
Legitimate's NFC Tags can be configured to redirect to a different domain or URL with the verification parameters from the tag to create an entirely new user flow and digital experience. This is extremely useful to redirect users to a custom web experience, or redirect to a native mobile app experience.
By default, Legitimate's NFC Tags are pre-programmed to open Legitimate's web URL first and then redirect to another desired URL. Legitimate will collect analytics data before redirecting.
The URL parameters can then be used to call the tag related APIs.
Each time an NFC tag is scanned, a new set of verification parameters will be generated. Therefore, if you are intending to use the Tag URL Redirect features, it is extremely important to note that . This is meant to protect the connected products from counterfeit and ensure that each scan is unique.
To configure the redirect URL, please login to the , open the configuration page for the desired SKU, and set the Redirect URL field.
