Hi JAMF Nation,
Was wondering how would I go about setting the homepage for end users' to a specific site and restricting them from changing their homepage?
Thanks so much for the help/input.

Hi
It can be done with a custom setting via a configuration profile.
Upload a plist like the one below, with a preference domain com.google.Chrome
You can set loads of stuff if you want: https://www.chromium.org/administrators/policy-list-3#top
Probably better explained in this thread
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>HomepageLocation</key> <string>https://YOURHOMEPAGE.com</string> <key>ShowHomeButton</key> <true/> <key>HomepageIsNewTabPage</key> <false/> <key>DeviceAutoUpdateDisabled</key> <false/> <key>DefaultBrowserSettingEnabled</key> <false/> <key>RestoreOnStartup</key> <integer>4</integer> <key>RestoreOnStartupURLs</key> <array> <string>https://YOURHOMEPAGE.com</string> </array> </dict> </plist>
@sdunbar Thanks for the response. After uploading the plist, this would override users' current Chrome plist on their machines?
@jimmychi We don't really use it, I was mainly testing it after using this method with Firefox and importing certs.
I don't think so, but as always, test first.
It would only change and lock down the settings indicated. Other Chrome settings that the user has modified will remain the same.
