Google Chrome Parameters

Hello, good afternoon.

Does anyone knows the correct format to enter Managed Bookmarks and URL Allow List in Google Chrome Application Configuration?

 

Best Regards,

Rui

Using the payload in the profile is very janky imo. I found it did not work once edited and devices only took the setting using a fresh profile. It was very weird so I resulted in using the XML and placing that into the custom settings and got better results. 

Example:

<characteristic type="com.airwatch.android.androidwork.app:com.android.chrome" uuid="REDACTED" target="1">
<parm name="URLBlocklist" type="string">
<![CDATA[["*"]]]>
</parm>
<parm name="URLAllowlist" type="string">
<![CDATA[["myworkday.com","google.com"]]]>
</parm>
<!-- REDACTED -->
</characteristic>

 

 

I attached an image if you plan on using the payload. An * in blocked will disable all websites and then you can add websites in the allow list for what users should be using. Should be the same format for bookmarks.

For Chrome App config format is as follows

Managed Bookmarks

[{"toplevel_name": "managed bookmarks folder" }, {"url": "https://example1.bookmark.com", "name": "Example2Bookmark"}, {"url": "https://Example3.com", "name": "Example3bookmark"}]

Deny List

[*]

Allow List

["Demo.com", "example.com", "example2.com"]
