Developer Posts
Updated: Nov 5, 2024
Developer post is a feature that enables you to help engage and grow your community. You provide content such as text and images to be displayed on an application’s product detail page (PDP). You can use these posts to highlight promotions and new content in your game.
Age-based feature limitations
When developing your apps, consider the following limitations related to age:
- Child users under 13 (10-12 year olds): Regardless of your app’s self-certification status, child users under 13 cannot access this Platform SDK feature. Implement error-handling for this unsupported feature to maintain a safe and pleasant experience for child users.

If you include a deep link in your post, make sure to implement a hook into your app that listens for a specific launch detail when the app is started.
When you see these details in the launch event, your app will retrieve the deep link that you defined to direct the user to the appropriate location in your app.
For example:
using Oculus.Platform.Models;
LaunchDetails launchDetails = new LaunchDetails(CAPI.
ovr_ApplicationLifecycle_GetLaunchDetails());
if (launchDetails.LaunchType == LaunchType.Deeplink) {
String deeplinkMessage = launchDetails.DeeplinkMessage;
...
}
