❔ How to set a custom start URL for an API from launch.json (VS Code)

I'm working on an ASP.Net core 7 web API, I use VS Code, in the launch.json file I have this configuration:

      "name": "Backend API",
      "type": "coreclr",
      "request": "launch",
      "preLaunchTask": "build",
      // If you have changed target frameworks, make sure to update the program path.
      "program": "${workspaceFolder}/src/Web.API/bin/Debug/net7.0/Web.API.dll",
      "args": [],
      "cwd": "${workspaceFolder}/src/Web.API",
      "stopAtEntry": false,
      // Enable launching a web browser when ASP.NET Core starts. For more information: https://aka.ms/VSCode-CS-LaunchJson-WebBrowser
      "serverReadyAction": {
        "action": "openExternally",
        "pattern": "\\bNow listening on:\\s+(https?://\\S+)"
      },
      "env": {
        "ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT": "Development"
      },
      "sourceFileMap": {
        "/Views": "${workspaceFolder}/Views"
      }

      "name": "Backend API",
      "type": "coreclr",
      "request": "launch",
      "preLaunchTask": "build",
      // If you have changed target frameworks, make sure to update the program path.
      "program": "${workspaceFolder}/src/Web.API/bin/Debug/net7.0/Web.API.dll",
      "args": [],
      "cwd": "${workspaceFolder}/src/Web.API",
      "stopAtEntry": false,
      // Enable launching a web browser when ASP.NET Core starts. For more information: https://aka.ms/VSCode-CS-LaunchJson-WebBrowser
      "serverReadyAction": {
        "action": "openExternally",
        "pattern": "\\bNow listening on:\\s+(https?://\\S+)"
      },
      "env": {
        "ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT": "Development"
      },
      "sourceFileMap": {
        "/Views": "${workspaceFolder}/Views"
      }

When I start the app, it goes directly to http://localhost:5272/, but I want it to directly go to http://localhost:5272/Swagger. Please does anyone here knows how to do it ? Massive thanks in advance <3
