App deep links

RGBJunkie for Windows registers the rgbjunkie:// URL scheme. Use these links from Stream Deck, batch files, browser bookmarks, or automation tools. When RGBJunkie is already running, a second launch forwards the link to the first window.

On the website, short handoff links under /s?p=… open the desktop app from a browser or bookmark. Each entry below includes a clickable handoff link for this server.

Jump straight into the app

Click a link below to open RGBJunkie on this server (same shortcuts as the App links help article). Add ?silent=1 on any handoff URL to run without restoring the window from the tray.

Route reference

Every supported deep link uses one of these hosts and path patterns. Replace {…} with your scene name, effect name, search words, or folder path.

Route Example Notes
view/settings/{tab} rgbjunkie://view/settings/hardware Tabs: overview, app-look, colors, hardware, installed, system, help, about. Legacy names still work (devices, engine, color-profiles, …).
view/settings/{tab}?q=… or ?search=… rgbjunkie://view/settings/system?q=logs Opens Settings with the search box filled. Jumps to the first tab with matches. Copy the link icon beside the search field in the app.
view/effects rgbjunkie://view/effects Opens the effect browser.
view/scenes rgbjunkie://view/scenes Scrolls the Scene picker into view.
view/open/appdata[/{subfolder}] rgbjunkie://view/open/appdata/logs Alias for open/appdata/… (handy for website handoff).
effect/apply/{effect name} rgbjunkie://effect/apply/Rainbow%20Rise?speed=3 Query keys merge into that effect’s sliders. Optional workspace, canvas, or ws targets a canvas tab.
effect/applyprevious | effect/applynext rgbjunkie://effect/applynext?workspace=2&silent=1 Steps through the effect list.
effect/togglepause rgbjunkie://effect/togglepause?silent=1 Pause or resume the active effect (same as the canvas pause button).
scene/apply/{scene name} | layout/apply/{scene name} rgbjunkie://scene/apply/My%20Scene?sceneFile=My%20Scene.json Matches the Scene dropdown label. sceneFile loads an exact .json from your saved scenes.
scene/applyprevious | scene/applynext rgbjunkie://scene/applyprevious?silent=1 Cycles saved scenes (skips autosave). layout/applyprevious works the same.
brightness/set/{0–100} rgbjunkie://brightness/set/75?silent=1 Sets master brightness percent.
brightness/adjust?delta=… rgbjunkie://brightness/adjust?delta=-5 Steps master brightness (delta −100 to 100).
lights/toggle rgbjunkie://lights/toggle?silent=1 Pause and black out every connected device; toggle again to resume.
open/appdata[/{subfolder}] rgbjunkie://open/appdata/plugins Opens your RGBJunkie user folder (or a subfolder) in File Explorer.
addon/install?url=… rgbjunkie://addon/install?url=https://github.com/owner/repo Only https://github.com/… and https://gitlab.com/…
import#rgbj-effect=… rgbjunkie://import#rgbj-effect=v1.… Import shared effect settings from a gzip/JSON payload.
app/restart rgbjunkie://app/restart Restart RGBJunkie.

Silent launch

Add ?silent=1, ?-silentlaunch-, or embed -silentlaunch- in the path/query so RGBJunkie stays in the tray instead of restoring the window. Example: rgbjunkie://view/settings/installed?silent=1

Settings — search

Search all settings (first matching tab)

Packaged installs register rgbjunkie:// with Windows. Effect-settings import and dev testing may need a release build; tauri dev often does not register the handler.
