How can I add a link for a rate button with swift?

Question

First I don't know how to get the link before I submit my app, and if the link is for each country app store or is it universal?

Also I don't know if the way to do it is just by putting the link there like:

@IBAction func rate(sender: AnyObject) {
    UIApplication.sharedApplication().openURL(NSURL(string : "webLinkHere")!)
}

Or should I use another way to do this?

Thanks

Try This, change appId in your method by your App ID

Swift 5

import StoreKit

func rateApp() {
    if #available(iOS 10.3, *) {
        SKStoreReviewController.requestReview()

    } else if let url = URL(string: "itms-apps://itunes.apple.com/app/" + "appId") {
        if #available(iOS 10, *) {
            UIApplication.shared.open(url, options: [:], completionHandler: nil)

        } else {
            UIApplication.shared.openURL(url)
        }
    }
}

Swift 3 \ 4

func rateApp() {
    guard let url = URL(string: "itms-apps://itunes.apple.com/app/" + "appId") else {
        return
    }
    if #available(iOS 10, *) {
        UIApplication.shared.open(url, options: [:], completionHandler: nil)

    } else {
        UIApplication.shared.openURL(url)
    }
}

id959379869 This is the id when you go on your Itune page of your app
