Same requirements as App Links.
And add the Firebase Dynamic Links dependency in the app-level Gradle build file:

app/build.gradle.kts

implementation platform('com.google.firebase:firebase-bom:<version>')
implementation("com.google.firebase:firebase-dynamic-links-ktx")

Then in your Activity's onCreate method, use this code to get the link if the user came from a Firebase Dynamic Link:

FirebaseDynamicLinks.getInstance()
    .getDynamicLink(intent)
    .addOnSuccessListener(this) {
        val uri: Uri? = it.link
    }
