Does any one happen to know how to structure a config profile for plist settings for Microsoft edge

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-policies

 

The aim at present, is to enforce safe browsing, prevent incognito mode and prevent deleting browsing history.

As this helps curb miss use of web browsing as kids realise, they can't hide where they have visited.

You can navigate to edge://policy for all the keys you can manage. As far as the XML, it’s no different then any other custom configuration profile and there are a few custom schemas out there you can find. 

Microsoft even provides a JAMF custom schema in their enterprise source files on the enterprise landing page for edge.

Yeah their instructions weren't very clear either as it was a bit old. And their reference of the JSON wasn't clear either, but I was able to obtain that from edge://policy

Thanks again.
