Search registration and launch reference for Windows Phone 8

[ This article is for Windows Phone 8 developers. If you’re developing for Windows 10, see the latest documentation. ]

Starting with Windows Phone OS 7.1, apps can extend the Search experience on Windows Phone. Using Search extensibility in your app primarily involves two steps: registering for search extensions that are relevant to your app and handling launches from deep link URIs. For each type of quick card, this topic describes the available extensions and the quick card parameters that are passed via the deep link URI. For more information about using Search extensibility with your app, see Search extensibility for Windows Phone 8 and How to extend the Search experience for Windows Phone 8.

The purpose of Search extensibility is to save the user time. Apps must use the deep link URI parameters in a meaningful way. For example, use them to automatically search within your own app when launched from a quick card. Use the Quick Card Sample to learn more about the URI parameter values that are passed from quick cards.

Important Note:

Apps that misuse Search extensibility risk being pulled from the Windows Phone Store. Register only for search extensions that are relevant to your app. To learn more about which extensions Bing associates with various quick cards, experiment with the Quick Card Sample.
