How to open to a specific view using home quick actions

I am new to Swift and have been using SwiftUI, not Storyboard.

I set the UIApplicationShortcutItems in the Info.plist and have two quick actions that are able to present an alert with launchOptions.

I am able to switch-case out the quick actions in SceneDelegate.swift

func windowScene(_ windowScene: UIWindowScene, performActionFor shortcutItem: UIApplicationShortcutItem, completionHandler: @escaping (Bool) -> Void) {
    switch shortcutItem.type {
    case "QuickAction1":
        OneView() // What do I do to open this SwiftUI struct View?
        break
    case "QuickAction2":
        SecondView() // What do I do to open this SwiftUI struct View?
        break
    default:
        break
    }
}

What is the proper way to open a particular view from a home quick action using SwiftUI?

ContentView.swift

struct ContentView: View {
    var body: some View {
        NavigationView {
            VStack {
                NavigationLink(destination: OneView())
                NavigationLink(destination: TwoView())
            }
        }
    }
}

Here is possible approach by steps (tested with Xcode 11.2 / iOS 13.2)

  1. Add AppSettings class to store mode of views to be presented by shorcut
    class AppSettings: ObservableObject {
        enum Mode {
            case one
            case two
        }
        @Published var mode: Mode? = nil
    }
  1. make appSettings scene delegate member to access it and in ContentView and in shortcut delegate and pass it in ContentView as environment object
    let appSettings = AppSettings()
    
    func scene(_ scene: UIScene, willConnectTo session: UISceneSession, options connectionOptions: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) {
    
        let contentView = ContentView().environmentObject(appSettings)
        // ...
  1. activate corresponding mode in shortcut scene delegate
    func windowScene(_ windowScene: UIWindowScene, performActionFor shortcutItem: UIApplicationShortcutItem, completionHandler: @escaping (Bool) -> Void) {
        switch shortcutItem.type {
        case "QuickAction1":
            appSettings.mode = .one
            break
        case "QuickAction2":
            appSettings.mode = .two
            break
        default:
            break
        }
        // ...
    }
  1. Make ContentView present links conditionally based on selected shortcut mode
    struct ContentView: View {
        @EnvironmentObject var appSettings: AppSettings
        
        var body: some View {
            NavigationView {
                VStack {
                    NavigationLink(destination: OneView(),
                                   tag: AppSettings.Mode.one,
                                   selection: $appSettings.mode)
                        { Text("To One") }
                    NavigationLink(destination: TwoView(),
                                    tag: AppSettings.Mode.two,
                                    selection: $appSettings.mode)
                        { Text("To Two") }
                }
            }
        }
    }
