Branch IO sending empty response on init

sometimes Branch returns empty json from its server on init. This is very random and for the same url branch response might or might not be empty.

  Branch branch = Branch.getInstance();
            branch.initSession(new Branch.BranchReferralInitListener() {
                @Override
                public void onInitFinished(final JSONObject referringParams, final BranchError error) {
                    new Handler(Looper.getMainLooper()).post(new Runnable() {
                        @Override
                        public void run() {
                            runningOnUIThread(referringParams, error);
                        }
                    });
                    Log.d("BRANCH IO",referringParams.toString());
                }
            }, a.getIntent().getData(), a);

referringParams: might be {} or correct data. Any idea why this could be happening?

Dev Environment :

Turn the TestMode "true" to simulate fresh installs on dev environment.

<meta-data android:name="io.branch.sdk.TestMode" android:value="true" />


Configure your iOS / Android app

Android : https://docs.branch.io/pages/apps/android/
IOS : https://docs.branch.io/pages/apps/ios/

optional:
- Make sure you have configured branch io link settings in dashboard console properly.

enter image description here

- Get your params with proper key name which you have define in your params list in link management.

JSONObject sessionParams = Branch.getInstance().getLatestReferringParams();
sessionParams.has("paramName")


Start a Branch session : 

    Branch branch = Branch.getInstance();
    // Branch init
    branch.initSession(new Branch.BranchReferralInitListener() {
        @Override
        public void onInitFinished(JSONObject referringParams, BranchError error) {

            if (error == null) {


                Log.e("BRANCH SDK", referringParams.toString());

                // latest
                JSONObject sessionParams = Branch.getInstance().getLatestReferringParams();
                Log.e("sessions params :", sessionParams.toString());

                // first
                JSONObject installParams = Branch.getInstance().getFirstReferringParams();
                Log.e("install params :", installParams.toString());

                processDeepLinkParams(sessionParams);


                if (getIntent().getExtras() != null && getIntent().getExtras().keySet() != null) {


                    deepLinkinData = getIntent().getExtras().getString("branch_data");
                }
                // Branch logging for debugging
               //  Branch.enableLogging();


            } else   {

                Log.i("BRANCH SDK", error.getMessage());

            }



        }
    }, this.getIntent().getData(), this);
