I'm integrating an Ionic app with a 3rd party web authentication framework. The framework requires that the user visit a web page to authenticate and then receive several authentication token cookies.
I plan to open a link to the external login page, have the user authenticate, and then be redirected back to the Ionic app.
I need a URL to the homepage of my app so that the login page can redirect the user back after logging in. How do I generate a a URL for a location in the Ionic app?

why not just use the in app browsers plugin so that the user never has to leave the app in the first place.
https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-inappbrowser
Our app has a blog and we use this
$scope.readMore = function (index) {
$scope.link = $scope.articles[index].WebLink;
window.open($scope.link, '_blank', 'transitionstyle=crossdissolve,toolbarposition=top');
};
by using the option _blank we can have the user open up a webpage inside the app not have to have the navigate away from the app in order to access a url, i also looks way better than a iframe.
