Hello, in Firefox browser, my organization has always blocked all extensions except for ones we allow through OMA-URI ./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/Firefox~Policy~firefox~Extensions/ExtensionSettings.

About a month ago this stopped working and our end users can now install any extension in the Firefox browser that they choose, without approval, creating a security risk.

When checking in about:policies, there is a policy error: Unable to parse JSON for ExtensionSettings. We have checked with Microsoft Intune support and they verified that the policy looks to be configured and targeted correctly.

Here is a snippet of our JSON, this is a test policy where microsoft support had us remove "about:addons" from the 'install sources'. Both test and production policies are not working.

Is this a bug? Or something wrong with our configuration? Has firefox changed the requirements of the extensionsettings OMA-URI?

Thanks for any help in advance.

Your JSON code ends with e comma (,) and is missing the closing curly bracket (})

OK, I missed that you posted a snippet.

I've moved the thread to Firefox for Enterprise since this is about Intune

I am also receiving the error in the screenshot below when navigating to about:policies in firefox browser and selecting 'errors'.

You need to remove this line: ``

      "install_sources": ["about:addons","https://addons.mozilla.org/*"],
