App ID: 1174047097 (Issue is iOS specific, not happening on Android)
GMP App ID: 1:16212101609:ios:ffd6c252371e0605
Firebase Project: coolblue-mobile-app
Issue Summary:
The customer is seeing this behavior (see attached video called 'unexpected behavior) when some users open their app vs. just opening the app and not being re-directed anywhere (see attached video 'expected behavior). In the cases we know of, this unexpected behavior is happening directly as the app was opened, and not after clicking anything. The customer is unable to replicate the issue on the spot, but users are continuing to report it (note the issue is not happening on the newest version of the app)
The Customer is only using the Firebase SDK, and is not using any marketing tags or pixels. However, when looking at their App logs, they are seeing calls to Google tag manager, so it's odd that this is happening.
Debugging on customer side:
Turned off all ad manager banners
Removed any custom HTML from GTM that included this URL
Debugged the last updates in
The app - the previous update relating to anything tracking/Google/Campaign Manager was months before
Updated to the newest version of the Firebase SDK
Looked at the new banner creations - saw no issues there
Looked into any web views that could be triggered , they saw iFrames with Ad Interest Groups being loaded within their gtag script
Compared the last few versions of the app - there were no changes that could have caused this. Their latest update was enabling dark mode... so no relation to web views or tracking.
In their codebase they don't have any hardcoded webviews. If the user has the app installed and tries to open any Coolblue website page that starts with https://www.coolblue.nl/ , we are going to try to open it in the app. The app is responsible for the way this page is gonna be presented to the user and the navigation to this page.
It's not Firebase dynamic links related, as it's happening right when opening the app from the iPhone home screen.
Customer confirmed that GTM is being used on the website (but not in the app), which would explain why we see entries 1554/1555.
We know that the problematic URL is "https://www.coolblue.nl/winkelmandje?initialAppCall=1" (SS) and the core question is what is triggering the website request. The customer has web views in the app, however this also happened on the homepage where there was no web view.
One theory we had is that in their website GTM set-up, they’ve added an exception to prevent it from firing on this page. However, the customer doesn’t want to block the 'winkelmandje' (add to cart) page, but they could enable a trigger to block with 'initalAppCall' URLs.
Somehow the app, through some sort of connection (and a Google connection is honestly the only conclusion we have) is triggering an iframe or website URL from our app
Question: What is triggering the website request, and how can they remove it?

@lindsayok Thanks for filing the issue. This may be challenging to investigate without a reproduction example. I don't think that anything in Firebase redirects to links other than Dynamic Links.
To help narrow the scope, would you update the issue with the Firebase products linked into the project via SPM?
Hi @paulb777 yes can do! To make sure I'm doing this properly, can you just confirm I'm understanding your ask correctly:
when you say 'Firebase products' you mean the APIs, correct? and what is SPM?
