How to Pass Safe Args as Bundle in Android Explicit Deep Link
When developing Android applications, one common challenge is creating deep links that can navigate users to specific content within your app. Especially when using the Navigation Component, the need to pass parameters securely and efficiently arises. This guide will guide you through the process of passing Safe Args as a bundle in an Android explicit deep link.
Understanding the Challenge
You might be facing an issue where you need to create an explicit deep link using the Navigation Component and want to pass a bundle of safe arguments to a destination. The goal is to ensure that your data, such as an order ID, is transferred safely to the relevant fragment.
The Problem
For instance, consider this scenario: you have the following code snippet for creating a deep link:

Here, the comment suggests that you need to pass a bundle, but you are unsure how to convert Safe Args to a bundle in Java.
The Solution: Creating a Bundle with Safe Args
After exploring various methods, we reached a straightforward solution. Below is a step-by-step explanation of how to implement this correctly in Java.
Step 1: Create a Bundle
First, you need to create a Bundle object where you can place your data. For example, if you want to pass an order ID, it can be turned into a string and stored in the bundle:
