EAS Build: Android applinks (intent filters or deeplink config) do not work with autoFilter:true in EAS build

Summary

Hi I have been using EAS build to distribute and run on production.

I use android intentfilters to directly open the app (when the auto verify is true).

Config in reproducible demo

Managed or bare workflow? If you have ios/ or android/ directories in your project, the answer is bare!

managed

What platform(s) does this occur on?

Android

SDK Version (managed workflow only)

42.0

Environment

Reproducible demo

"intentFilters": [
        {
          "autoVerify": true,
          "action": "VIEW",
          "data":
          {
              "scheme": "https",
              "host": "mydomain.com",
              "pathPrefix": "/applogin"
            },
          "category": [
            "BROWSABLE",
            "DEFAULT"
          ]
        }
      ]

This config works on expo build and applinks are auto verified, so the link directly opens the app. But on EAS build the app is not directly opened and it asks for how to open the app. Am I missing something when it comes to applinks (deeplinks) in android

In androidManifest.xml, it takes this form:

  <intent-filter android:autoVerify="true">
        <data android:scheme="https" android:host="mydomain.com" android:pathPrefix="/applogin"/>
        <data android:scheme="exp+appname"/>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"/>
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE"/>
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>
      </intent-filter>

Still does not work as intended. I have also hosted the file on /.well-known/assetlinks.json and it works with the expo build workflow. Not the app link workflow.
