Autofill app settings for embed block using deep link

Hi!

Using the deep links in our app and they are awesome. However, I either cannot find or there is a missing functionality - settings. Is there any way I could pre-fill the schema settings? There is a field "source id" that I would very much like to set automatically. Then we could avoid the customer having to go back to the app's dashboard to copy it and enter it.

I think it also would be quite simple to implement, if missing:

/admin/themes/current/editor?template=${template}&addAppBlockId={uuid}/{handle}&target=newAppsSectio...settings}

Where settings - json stringified or key-value or whatever format for them.

 

Thanks!

I wonder if you got a solution for this case?
I can't figure out how to set the parameters in the url to populate a field in the app block

No, tried many different ways hoping that it simply wasn't documented, but without any luck. Haven't read into it since summer tho, so maybe something has changed.
