Opening activity inside a navgraph with a deeplink causing a crash

I have an activity inside an navgraph, directly i am able to navigate to it by below code

Navigation.findNavController(requireView())?.navigate(R.id.sampleActivity)

Please find the navgraph below

<navigation xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:id="@+id/home_nav_graph"
    app:startDestination="@id/appFirstFragment">

    <fragment
        android:id="@+id/appFirstFragment"
        android:name="com.example.deeplinkpoc.AppFirstFragment"
        android:label="fragment_app_first"
        tools:layout="@layout/fragment_app_first" >
    </fragment>
    <activity
        android:id="@+id/sampleActivity"
        android:name="com.example.deeplinkpoc.SampleActivity"
        android:label="activity_sample"
        tools:layout="@layout/activity_sample">
        <deepLink
            android:id="@+id/deepLink2"
            app:uri="https://www.abcdxyz.com/test" />
    </activity>
     </navigation>

But if i try to navigate to it using deeplink its crashing
