Hi JAMF Nation!
Is there a Safari equivalent to Chromium's policy list for Chrome? I'm trying to expand my knowledge/add more options to my Safari Configuation Profile. I can't seem to find anything on Google or Apple's Mac OS X developer's page. I'm currently using what I can find from my JSS on Computers>Managed Preferences> Safari. Can anyone link me to a good list?

If you travel to
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
You''ll see some of Safari's configurable items, other than that I can't seem to find much. Good luck with your config profile!

I would look at the /Applications/Safari.app/Contents/Resources/com.apple.Safari.manifest file...this contains most of the Safari management options and would totally be used if you were doing Managed Preferences (MCX). What I did back in the day was to convert my old Workgroup Manager preferences to custom payload .mobileconfig files using MCXtoprofile <https://github.com/timsutton/mcxToProfile>
I can then manage all of my Safari settings via profile that way.

Depending on what you're trying to accomplish, there might be a few ways to do it. For some things, Config Profiles make the most sense. For others, you have to get a bit trickier.

@JPDyson Yup, I'm currently using Config Profiles but can't seem to find any documentation on the capabilities of Config Profiles for Safari (Asides from JSS>Computers>MXC>Safari)

If managing plugin options is one of your goals, like getting rid of some of those pesky prompts like we did for standardized testing, you can check out this Apple kbase:
