How can I launch a home page link?

I am trying to do something simple, but I am not succeeding. I added a Chrome link to my home screen. I would like write a flow to change some settings on my phone (volume for example) and then run the link. I cannot figure out how to start the Chrome link. Launch App and Launch Shortcut do not lead me anywhere useful. Anyone got a suggestion?
Thanks,

Use Action Open URL in Browser.
URL :
www.google.com
Use defined app :
checked
Package Name :
com.android.chrome
Class Name :
com.google.android.apps.chrome.Main
You can use this for other browser too, just change the package name and select the correct class name (sometimes need to try).

Wow. Nice to know! I used to do this by "Start Activity" -> Packagename: "com.android.chrome" -> Data URI: "{url}", but this is much easier.
