Hello All,

 

I was looking for a way to deploy Nexthink browser extension on macOS for Google Chrome , MS Edge and Firefox.

Nexthink team gave me link( https://docs.nexthink.com/platform/latest/installing-the-web-browser-extension) to download extension but I can see there is code too in their site, what exactly I need to do in JAMF?

 In that link they give you the code, so you would just create a profile from the provided code. I would pay close attention to the Firefox one regarding the pop-ups

So I should not go to Google Web Store  and MS Edge add-ons repository to download anything, only I can push the code through CP?

Create a new configuration profile with an Application and Custom Settings payload, domain com.google.chrome.  Then add a .plist like so:

<?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>ExtensionInstallForcelist</key>
 	 <array>
<string>miinajhilmmkpdoaimnoncdiliaejpdk;https://clients2.google.com/service/update2/crx</string>
 	 </array>
	</dict>
</plist>

 Repeat for other browsers and extensions. Also useful for setting homepages, etc.
