MS Edge Kiosk Mode, Multi Tab Syntax for Command Line

With a domain connected computer, I am looking for a way to make sure Edge is locked down and Kiosk Mode with a whole bunch of GPOs seems to be the way I need to go. Unfortunately, the built-in Kiosk setup requires it to run on just a local account which prevents a lot of my GPOs from being enforced, but following the instructions on the link below, I know that it can pull up the pages I want and display how I want:

The question is: how do I achieve the same result with three tabs using the syntax

msedge.exe --kiosk www.contoso.com --edge-kiosk-type=public-browsing --kiosk-idle-timeout-minutes=1

    Hi @Mike Kerr

    Do you want to open Edge in kiosk mode with three tabs using the command line? If so you can try the following command: 

    msedge.exe --kiosk www.google.com www.msn.com www.microsoft.com --edge-kiosk-type=public-browsing --kiosk-idle-timeout-minutes=1

    I test in Edge Version 89.0.774.50 (Official build) (64-bit) and it works.
