I'd like to make a PWA shortcut for my second logged-in account's Google Calendar (url is https://calendar.google.com/calendar/b/1/r). However, whenever I make a shortcut via Menu => More Tools => Create shortcut, it reads calendar.google.com's manifest and sets the start url to https://calendar.google.com/calendar/r, which is my primary account.

How can I force Chrome to use the URL for my second account? I don't want to create a new Chrome profile and do it that way; I'd like it the shortcut to always open the second account in my main Chrome profile.

I've found a solution to this problem by changing the manifest reference.

Here's an example of how to do it for Google Keep:

  1. Open your second account in Google Keep and in Developer Tools find the reference to the web manifest.

  1. Open the manifest in a new tab and rehost it on a JSONbin-like hosting website, modifying whatever you deem necessary. I used npoint.io, here's what mine looks like.

  1. Take the direct URL to the JSON payload and replace it in Dev Tools in the Google Keep page.

enter image description here

  1. Now you can go to Menu -> More Tools -> Create Shortcut, and your new shortcut will start at the start URL you supplied in your manifest.
