How to open Oculus Avatar Creator from game with Unity

Hello!

I am trying to open Oculus's Avatar creator from a link in my game. I have it detecting whether you have the default Avatar or a user created avatar. However, from what I've found searching on the net I have only seen a deep link as a way to open apps. However, that requires an appID and if Avatar Creator does have one I can not find it. Is there another way to handle this? Or an appID?  Using Unity game engine.

Thanks!

        I wasn't able to find a callback for this. Instead I got around this problem by turning a flag on once the user opens the menu, and then when the app is un-paused I check that flag and if its true I re-load the avatar:

        private void OnApplicationPause(bool pause)
        {
            if (!pause && m_isEditingAvatar) //User must have returned to app after finishing editing their avatar
            {
                m_isEditingAvatar = false;
                RecreateMyAvatar();
                Close();
            }
        }
