App Intent with Eddystone Beacons and Nearby

I would like to open a certain instagram profile in the App when a user clicks on a Nearby Notification.

I have three fields to fill out:

The package name is fairly clear (com.instagram.android). But when I only fill this field, the app store opens first. There I have to click on "open" to open Instagram. What am I doing wrong? The only app intent tutorials I found are about direct app integration and not of much use.

The App intent only works for apps that have been published on the Google Play store.

Maybe you should add some content at your app like this:

<intent-filter>
    <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"/>
    <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE"/>
    <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>

    <data
        android:host="scan"
        android:pathPrefix="/profile/foo"
        android:scheme="fb"/>
</intent-filter>

You can see more information here.
