Extension Authentication Configuration

Requiring User Authentication

If you are using SAML/SSO, see the instructions at Setting Up SAML/SSO.
By default, on installation, the PixieBrix browser extension prompts the team member to link the extension to a PixieBrix account. However, if the team member closes the extension, PixieBrix will not prompt them to link the extension again.
To require a team member to log in to the PixieBrix extension, supports using Chromiums’s Managed Policy feature to associate the extension with your organization. As part of the PixieBrix heartbeat every 5min., PixieBrix will check if it’s unlinked and prompt the user to link their extension.
In Chrome's chrome://policy/ screen, if you have the PixieBrix browser extension installed, you’ll see the policy value you've provided under the PixieBrix section. For example:
Example: PixieBrix policy section in Chrome/Microsoft Edge with managedOrganizationId policy configured
Windows Registry Setting
On Window, use the registry to set the managedOrganizationId property for the extension:
Copy
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Google\Chrome\3rdparty\extensions\mpjjildhmpddojocokjkgmlkkkfjnepo\policy
The type of the managedOrganizationId key should be REG_SZ (a string) and provide the UUID for your organization.
