Introduction
In Absorb LMS, Deep Links or Deep Linking refers to the ability to redirect Users to a specific user content page within the system, given that the individual is logged into the LMS via a hyperlink they have selected.
Keep in mind...
- Deep Links will be dependent on Availability Rules; which may restrict certain Users from accessing content.
- Deep Links are not available for Courses and/or Sessions that do not have Self Enrollment functionality enabled, if the User is not already enrolled.
Read below for details on how Absorb now supports SSO Deep Links.

Add Course(s) to Cart via Deeplink
An unauthenticated user can add course(s) to their cart via deeplink. We verify the user meets the availability rule requirements before adding the course to the cart. Multiple course types can be added via a single deeplink (e.g. an online course and a specific ILC session).
Up to 5 courses can be added to the cart via the deeplink; only single seat purchases are allowed for each course. Formatting for the deeplink(s) are as follows:
