To deploy the browser extension on Linux and Firefox:

2. Create a distribution directory within the Firefox installation directory.

3. In the distrubition directory, create a file policies.json.

4. Add the following to policies.json:

   {
   "policies": {
    "ExtensionSettings": {
      "446900e4-71c2-419f-a6a7-df9c091e268b": {

         }
       }
     }
   }

   In this JSON object, "446900e4-71c2-419f-a6a7-df9c091e268b" is the extension ID for the Bitwarden browser extension. Similarly, "https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/latest/bitwarden-password-manager/latest.xpi" signals Firefox to use the extension store to retrieve the extension.

5. (Recommended) To disable Firefox's built-in password manager, add the following to policies.json inside of "policies": { }:

   Bash
   {
    "PasswordManagerEnabled": false
   }

6. Using your preferred software distribution or MDM tool, deploy the following to users' machines:

To deploy the browser extension on MacOS and Firefox:

1. Download and install Firefox for Enterprise for macOS.

2. Create a distribution directory in Firefox.app/Contents/Resources/.

3. In the created /distribution directory, create a new file org.mozilla.firefox.plist.

   Tipp

4. Add the following to org.mozilla.firefox.plist:

   Bash
   <key>ExtensionSettings</key>
   <dict>
      <key>446900e4-71c2-419f-a6a7-df9c091e268b</key>
      <dict>
        <key>installation_mode</key>
        <string>force_installed</string>
        <key>update_url</key>
        <string>https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/latest/bitwarden-password-manager/latest.xpi</string>
      </dict>
    </dict>

   In this codeblock, 446900e4-71c2-419f-a6a7-df9c091e268b is the extension ID for the Bitwarden browser extension. Similarly, https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/latest/bitwarden-password-manager/latest.xpi signals Firefox to use the extension store to retrieve the application.

5. (Recommended) To disable Firefox's built-in password manager, add the following to org.mozilla.firefox.plist:

   Bash
   <dict>
     <key>PasswordManagerEnabled</key>
     <false/>
   </dict>

6. Convert the org.mozilla.firefox.plist file to a configuration profile using a conversion tool like mcxToProfile.

7. Deploy the Firefox .dmg and the configuration profile using your software distribution or MDM tool to all managed computers.

To deploy the browser extension on macOS and Microsoft Edge:

1. Download the Microsoft Edge for macOS .pkg file.

2. In Terminal, use the following command to create a .plist file for Microsoft Edge:

   Bash
   /usr/bin/defaults write ~/Desktop/com.microsoft.Edge.plist RestoreOnStartup -int 1

3. Use the following command to convert the .plist from binary to plain text:

   Bash
   /usr/bin/plutil -convert xml1 ~/Desktop/com.microsoft.Edge.plist

4. Open com.microsoft.Edge.plist and add the following:

   Bash
   <key>ExtensionSettings</key>
   <dict>
     <key>jbkfoedolllekgbhcbcoahefnbanhhlh</key>
     <dict>
       <key>installation_mode</key>
       <string>force_installed</string>
       <key>update_url</key>
       <string>https://edge.microsoft.com/extensionwebstorebase/v1/crx</string>
     </dict>
   </dict>

   In this codeblock, jbkfoedolllekgbhcbcoahefnbanhhlh is the application identifier for the Bitwarden browser extension. Similarly, https://edge.microsoft.com/extensionwebstorebase/v1/crx signals Edge to use the Edge Add-On Store to retrieve the identified application.

   Hinweis

   You may also configure forced installations using the ExtensionInstallForceList, however the ExtensionSettings method will supersede ExtensionInstallForceList.

5. (Recommended) To disable Edge's built-in password manager, add the following to com.microsoft.Edge.plist:

   Bash
   <key>PasswordManagerEnabled</key>
   <false/>

6. Convert the com.microsoft.Edge.plist file to a configuration profile using a conversion tool like mcxToProfile.

7. Deploy the Edge .pkg and the configuration profile using your software distribution or MDM tool to all managed computers.
