3. Set Chrome policies

You can tailor settings and policies for all users and devices in your organization.

Before you begin

• You can customize settings for groups of users or devices. Simply group users or devices that have specific requirements into organizational units. Then apply relevant settings to each organizational unit. For details, see How the organizational structure works.

Set user policies

User policies are enforced anywhere your users sign in, even if the device isn't enrolled in your domain. The policies are tied to the user's profile. 

Before you begin: To set policies for a specific group of users, put their accounts in an organizational unit.​

1. Sign in to your Google Admin console.

   Sign in using your administrator account (does not end in @gmail.com).

2. In the Admin console, go to Menu  DevicesChromeSettings. The User & browser settings page opens by default.

   If you signed up for Chrome Browser Cloud Management, go to Menu  Chrome browserSettings.

3. To apply the setting to all users and enrolled browsers, leave the top organizational unit selected. Otherwise, select a child organizational unit.
4. Configure any settings. Common customized settings include:
   • Force-installed apps
   • Set pages to load at startup
   • Configure a proxy server
   • Enable or disable printing
   • Enable SAML single sign-on
