Define the WebApp shortcut name when using WebAppInstallForceList
Is it possible to provide a self-chosen shortcut name for the web apps? In the documentation I only find this information.
[
{
"create_desktop_shortcut": true,
"default_launch_container": "window",
"url": "https://www.contoso.com/maps"
},
{
"default_launch_container": "tab",
"url": "https://app.contoso.edu"
}
]
Thanks for you help!

maikwinter That would be great!
@Microsoft:But not only to define an own shortcut name. It would be also great if we could add the WebApp directly to taskbar or bin to Start Menu. Do you plan to add such a option in an future Edge Version?

re_bl maikwinter Hello! Our team is currently investigating adding an additional property to help define a shortcut name! It looks like we've had other similar requests for this feature as well.
re_bl In regards to your request to add to Task Bar or pin to Start, I've passed on your feedback to the team. Also, if you haven't had a chance yet, you can also submit your feedback through the browser. ("..." menu > Help and feedback > Send feedback).
We can follow up if we hear any updates from our team!

maikwinter re_bl Hello! We have a modification coming in V89 for the WebAppInstallForceList Policy which will allow you to override the app name.
Here is a link to our updated documentation: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-policies#webappinstallforcelist
Let us know if there are any questions. Thanks!
