For administrators who manage Chrome browser or ChromeOS devices for a business or school.
As an administrator, you can recommend a collection of Chrome apps and extensions for users in your organization. You can include public and private apps in a collection. Private apps, available only to your users and people you share a link with, appear alongside public apps in the Chrome Web Store.
To make settings for a specific group of users or enrolled Chrome browsers, put the user accounts or browsers in a group or organizational unit. Only user accounts can be added to groups. For details, see Groups and Add an organizational unit.
Note: Some Chrome apps that have been explicitly published as unlisted by the app publisher might not be visible in these recommended Chrome app collections.
