Hey guys,
I'm horrible at scripting and I was wondering if I could get some help setting the homepage on Firefox with a Configuration Profile. The XML comes back with no errors but it still doesn't seem to work. Do you see what I'm missing or doing wrong?
Thanks!

Instead of doing this via plist, you can use a custom json schema. You go to external applications in this payload instead of custom, and then choose custom schema, paste in the following schema and you'll get fillable form fields and drop downs for Firefox settings, including the Homepage

Thank you very much for that. It took a few minutes to figure it out but I got it.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Yesterday I was wracking my brain and I remember seeing something about Firefox 78 (I'm using the ESR) and so I ended up finding this:
and found that one worked for me. I did have to tweek the SSL Version as I was getting a SSL no cypher overlap error but when I went from 1.3 to 1.2 it all seems to work now.
Thanks!

i can't get this to work for me. i've set up the custom schema for an external application and pasted the schema in. I get the fillable form fields, but the settings don't take hold on my clients once the configuration goes out.

Yeah. We seem to be getting the same. All looks OK but settings don't seem to be taking.

I got this working with a plist file that i deployed via configuration profile. Our active directory team had the plist file. They said it came with the firefox gpo admx download. Hope this helps someone later.

can you share the plist? Did you have to enable enterprise policy for firefox?
