I saw an old post tried to resolve the issue, but unfortunately no solution was provided.
My organization is based on Google Workspace, and we have to use Gmail, Google Calendar and Chat for work, so I have to manually set up the app shortcut for each user on dock, which is time-consuming, is there anyway we can deploy the app and then add them to dock like other apps via PPPC or Dock Master?
Any suggestion will be appreciated!😊

I got it working "mostly". It opens as a web page instead of a web app window. Need to work on that.
Create a dmg with the web app in Composer.
Upload the dmg as FEU to Jamf with the following script. It'll change the user to the current user.
I use dockutil to dock the Web App. You can use Dock Items.
If you have Gmail, Google Calendar, and Chat in your Dock, and you have Jamf Admin.app on your computer, you should be able to capture the dock items and save them to your instance. Then, using a policy with Dock Items you can add the above apps.

But how can you deploy to universal user, as from the screenshot, you are deploying this to a specific user.
You're right... How do you deploy the Chrome Web Apps? Maybe the shortcuts could be deployed in the /User/Shared directory somewhere. Then the reference point that the Dock Items policy would be universal...
The above script only works for Gmail app, can you advise how to deal with Google Chat and Google Calendar? I could not find the crx id for Chat and Calendar anywhere...
