Specifies a list of apps that are installed silently on the login screen,
without user interaction, and which cannot be uninstalled.
All permissions requested by the apps are granted
implicitly, without user interaction, including any additional
permissions requested by future versions of the app.
Note that, for security and privacy reasons, extensions are not allowed to be installed using this policy. Moreover, the devices on the Stable channel will only install the apps that belong to the whitelist bundled into Google Chrome. Any items that don't conform to these conditions will be ignored.
If an app that previously had been force-installed is removed from this list, it is automatically uninstalled by Google Chrome.
Each list item of the policy is a string that contains an extension ID and an "update" URL separated by a semicolon (;). The extension ID is the 32-letter string found e.g. on chrome://extensions when in developer mode. The "update" URL should point to an Update Manifest XML document as described at https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/autoupdate. Note that the "update" URL set in this policy is only used for the initial installation; subsequent updates of the extension employ the update URL indicated in the extension's manifest.
For example, gbchcmhmhahfdphkhkmpfmihenigjmpp;https://clients2.google.com/service/update2/crx installs the Chrome Remote Desktop app from the standard Chrome Web Store "update" URL. For more information about hosting extensions, see: https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/hosting.
