Mangaged Chrome Bookmarks on Android devices

[Keith_B]

Hi there.

Can anyone advise if there are any particular gotchas when trying to setup Managed Bookmarks for Chrome on Android devices please?

I am trying to setup devices in Kiosk Mode but require access to specific web URLs, so am trying to provision this through the Managed Bookmarks

TIA

Keith

This is done through managed app config.

Chrome has a surprising amount of things that can be managed in this way. details of which are here:

https://chromeenterprise.google/policies/#ManagedBookmarks

It does go into some detail, so I'll give an example of some simple bookmarks

We'll create a new policy using Managed App Config for Android

 

We can add a new entry, find Managed Bookmarks in the list and add something like the following:

[{"toplevel_name": "Acme Bookmarks"}, { "name": "Cisco", "url": "cisco.com" }, { "name": "Meraki", "url": "meraki.com"}]
