Android App dynamic Shortcut for multi flavour app

Question

Could you please help configure the application package for dynamic shortcuts in Android?

The application code has branding using product flavouring via build.gradle.

productFlavors {
    branda {
        applicationId "com.bb.branda"
        ...
    }
    brandb {
        applicationId "com.bb.brandb"
        ...
    }
    ...
    ...

}

For static shortcuts, they can be configured in the shortcuts.xml file, under the tag "targetPackage".

For eg. android:targetPackage="com.bb.branda"

<shortcuts xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<shortcut
    android:shortcutId="contact_us"
    android:enabled="true"
    android:icon="@drawable/home_contactus_icon"
    android:shortcutShortLabel="@string/label.contactus"
    android:shortcutLongLabel="@string/label.contactus"
    >
    <intent
        android:action="contactus"
        android:targetPackage="com.bb.brand"
        android:targetClass="com.bb.launcher.LauncherActivity"
        />
    <categories android:name="android.shortcut.conversation" />
</shortcut>

For Dynamic shortcuts, where could the same be done in the below code snippet?

 if(Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.N_MR1) {

        ShortcutManager shortcutManager = ctx.getSystemService(ShortcutManager.class);

        ShortcutInfo shortcut = new ShortcutInfo.Builder(ctx, shortcutId)
                .setShortLabel(sTitle)
                .setLongLabel(sTitle)
                .setIcon(Icon.createWithResource(ctx, resID))
                .setIntent(new Intent(sIntentAction))
                .build();

        shortcutManager.addDynamicShortcuts(Arrays.asList(shortcut));
    }

Thanks in advance.

If what you want to achieve is specify the package for the intent, you can create the intent in the following way:

    Intent intent = new Intent(sIntentAction);
    intent.setComponent(new ComponentName("your.package.id", YourActivity.class.getName()));
    ShortcutInfo shortcut = new ShortcutInfo.Builder(ctx, shortcutId)
            .setShortLabel(sTitle)
            .setLongLabel(sTitle)
            .setIcon(Icon.createWithResource(ctx, resID))
            .setIntent(intent)
            .build();
