Build an Configuration Profile for test purpose set home folder to https://www.apple.com 

Profile is installed but Firefox don't react to it at all.

Used the policies.json from here https://github.com/Jamf-Custom-Profile-Schemas/JSON-Schema-for-Jamf-Pro-Applications-and-Settings-MD...

FireFox is installed with Installomator

@PE Here's the .plist I use to set the Firefox home page (and enable auto update):

 

<?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>EnterprisePoliciesEnabled</key>
		<true/>
		<key>AppAutoUpdate</key>
		<true/>
		<key>Homepage</key>
		<dict>
			<key>URL</key>
			<string>https://apple.com</string>
			<key>Locked</key>
			<true/>
			<key>StartPage</key>
			<string>homepage</string>
		</dict>
	</dict>
</plist>

@PE When you send the Configuration Profile to the Mac it's going to be a .plist like I provided. The application for JSON in this case is to configure the Jamf Pro payload editor to create that .plist, and based on your original post you're not able to create a payload that does what you want using it. I can't help you with that because I don't use that method to create Firefox Configuration Profiles. What I'd suggest based on what I do know works is change to the Upload option for the Application & Custom Settings payload then paste in the .plist I provided and edit it for the homepage you want.

@sdagley  I will try your suggestion first and see if that works - thanks for your time

Have not been able to upload plists to Jamf pro for a while.  Not sure if this is the right solution.  I am also having similar issues with Mozilla's "template".
