For MLSs: What are Deep Links?

Deep Links allow your agents to quickly navigate to pages within RPR from your MLS intranet. For example, agents can go from a listing page on your website to the same property in RPR.

  • You can open the RPR deep link in the user’s existing window, in an entirely new window, or even in an iframe (this can be handled by your developers).

  • If the user is not signed into RPR, they will be prompted to do so (unless SSO is configured), and will then be taken to the requested page.

  • Deep Links can be used in both Commercial and Residential mode, with branding and with Single Sign-On (SSO).

Contact

Contact your RPR MLS Support representative to add Deep Links capability for your MLS.

Implement

Adding Deep Links to your site will require assistance from a web developer.

Access

Deep Linking is available only to REALTORS®, it cannot be used on public-facing websites.

MLS Instructions

Click on the tabs below to see step-by-step instructions.

Contact Us

Contact your MLS Support Representative to add the Deep Links tool to your RPR MLS Dashboard.  Once Deep Links are added to your RPR MLS Dashboard, follow these instructions.

Log in to RPR, then open your Profile menu and select MLS Tools.

Deep Links tab

Select the Deep Links tab.

Step 1

Start by Searching

Enter a property address or geographical area in the search field.

Note: The address or area will work when testing these links, but should be replaced with a parameter that contains the subject property address. Make sure the parameter includes a full address including city, state, and ZIP.

Step 2

Select your mode

Select either Residential or Commercial.

Step 3

Select what you want to link to

Choose which pages in RPR that you would like to link to from your website. Click on Property/Listing Details, Reports, Search Results, Neighborhoods, and Schools to select pages within each of these categories.

To test your links, click Test this link located next to the Copy this Link button.

Step 4

Copy your Deep Links

On the right side of the page, click the Copy All Deep Links button.

  • Email your copied Deep Links to your development team by entering their email address in the field provided and click the Send button.

  • Popular areas to have your developers paste these Deep Links are your listing detail pages, search results, or hot sheets.

  • Developers will need to use your website code to dynamically fill in the Query portion of these links (the address or geographical area). If your user is on 1 Live Oak, Irvine, CA 92604, then your web application should place that address into the “Query” parameter of these Deep Links.

Manual Developer Instructions (optional)

The easiest way to implement RPR Deep Links is for an MLS staff member to follow the MLS Instructions within this article. MLS staff will use the Deep Link generator tool to quickly and easily create customized deep links that are then pasted into your website code, dynamically changing the query string parameters as appropriate based on the user’s selections. (An RPR MLS Support person can help you generate deep links if you need assistance.) Or manually construct the deep links using the instructions below:

  • Start with the base link: https:/narrpr.com/deep-link?

  • Determine if you have RPR branding. If so, you will need to add cbcode= to the querystring.

  • Determine if you have Single Sign-On (SSO) in place with RPR. If so, add ssocode= to the querystring.

  • Add additional parameters to the query string to return the specific data you’re looking for. Click on the links below to learn more.

  • ApMode (determines whether RPR displays residential or commercial data and functionality)
