We’re attempting to arrange an affiliation file for a web site that did not have it earlier than.
We have uploaded the file to https://www.our-website.com/.well-known/apple-app-site-association (as urged within the documentation). Sadly, it did not work, the hyperlinks nonetheless open within the browser as a substitute of our app and we won’t appear to determine why.
We tried querying the Apple CDN, and for some cause it returns 404:
$ curl -v https://app-site-association.cdn-apple.com/a/v1/www.our-website.com
>

Not Discovered
Requesting the affiliation file straight returns 200 although (we tried from completely different networks, all works effective):

In line with AASA validator, all is sweet:
It has been a number of days already, so this most likely is not a caching subject. Beforehand we additionally tried internet hosting the file at https://www.our-website.com/apple-app-site-association however the consequence was the identical.
Unusually, the diagnostic software on iPhone (in Settings > Developer) experiences that every one is A-OK:
That is all completely complicated, particularly the failure message: {"trigger":"invalid character 'u003c' searching for starting of worth"}. Is the CDN bot attempting to parse the physique even after receiving 404?
Anybody has any concepts?
