PixieBrix, by and large, works on any Chromium-based browser. If you have questions or need official support, please contact .
There are two approaches to distributing the PixieBrix Browser Extension:
Scenario #1: Self-Serve Installation from Chrome Web Store. Team members manually install the browser extension as needed
If your organization blocks extension by default, so that each team member can individually install the PixieBrix browser extension. See Browser Extension Installation Policy
Your team members will follow the instructions at Installing the PixieBrix Chrome Browser Extension
Scenario #2: Automatic Installation. Add PixieBrix to have Chrome automatically install the browser extension on team members' browsers.
Follow instructions at Browser Extension Installation Policy
Your team members will follow the instructions at Linking Your PixieBrix Account. Or configure SSO to authenticate users via automatically Setting Up SAML/SSO
Scenario #3: Virtual Desktop Infrastructure. If you use a VDI, such as Citrix, refer to the Automatic Installation instructions
