Changing profile within the chrome browser
Hello, my problem only concerns the Chrome browser, I have several profiles configured on it and I would like the appropriate links to open in the appropriate profiles. Everything works fine until I want to open a link in Default profile, which should open in Profile 3. Unfortunately, this does not happen, the page opens in the profile from which I clicked the link. I would like to know if there are configuration options that will allow me to define the functionality as above.
My config file:
const job1 = {
name: "Google Chrome",
profile: "Profile 3",
};
const job2 = {
name: "Google Chrome",
profile: "Default",
};
const private = {
name: "Google Chrome",
profile: "Profile 7",
};
const outlookApp = "/Applications/Microsoft Outlook.app";
module.exports = {
defaultBrowser: "Google Chrome",
handlers: [
{
match: [
/^https?:\/\/job1\.sharepoint\.com\.goskope\.com\/.*$/,
/^https:\/\/jira\-job1\-ds\.atlassian\.net\/$/,
],
browser: job1,
},
{
match: /^https?:\/\/facebook\.com\/.*$/,
browser: private,
},
{
match: /^https:\/\/job2\.sharepoint\.com\/$/,
browser: job2,
},
{
match: ({ opener }) => ["Microsoft Outlook"].includes(opener.name),
browser: job2,
},
{
match: finicky.matchDomains("open.spotify.com"),
browser: "Spotify"
},
{
match: finicky.matchHostnames(['teams.microsoft.com']),
browser: 'com.microsoft.teams',
url: ({url}) =>
({...url, protocol: 'msteams'}),
},
]
}
Thanks!
I do experience the same issue with Chrome on MacOS.
I do have my gmail tab open in Profile 1 and if I click on a link in an email that is configured to be opened in Profile 2 it still opens in Profile 1. If I click the exact same link from another application it works just fine.
I solved this by writing a Chrome extension - which is probably not overly elegant - but seems to work:
