Hi all!
We are currently testing our implementation of Jamf Pro Cloud. I am trying to set Chrome as the default browser for my organization, but I cannot find the option to do that through Jamf. And anything online about this is over a few years old. I just wanted to check in and see if there has been a change to this, or if anyone has a clever way of getting around it!
Thanks!

Here's an example of how the .plist key value pairs should be set to enable Google Chrome as the default browser:
<?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>DefaultBrowserSettingEnabled</key>
<true/>
</dict>
</plist>
User is prompted to change the default browser to Chrome upon launch.

Hi guys,
I actually have the same setting working for some time already, and I am currently increasing the scope.
All smooth, but when on ADE devices, the 1st time Google Chrome is launched I get 2 prompts of this type.
When I exclude the devices recently built/enrolled into JAMF, the config does not take action and no prompt appears...
I was expecting Google Chrome would always prompt on the 1st run but I still can't understand what I'm missing here.
Did anyone experience something similar before?
Best regards!
