I was simply pointing out that GPO is an option, I don't actually know enough to tell you what's wrong there (beyond comparing it with the public help docs myself which I'm not more qualified than you to do).
Perhaps someone else knows?

Hi Gab,I’ve tried changing the policy_templates.json and rebuild my project, problem is the policy is not applying and it doesn’t appear in the chrome://policyDid I miss any step in the process?I’m running on a mac,This is an example of modification of the json file I did:'policies': [{'name': 'HomepageLocation','type': 'string','schema': { 'type': 'string' },'supported_on': ['chrome.*:8-', 'chrome_os:11-'],'features': {'can_be_recommended': True,'dynamic_refresh': True,'per_profile': True,},'future': 'chrome://apps', <<I want the homepage to be apps page'example_value': 'http://chromium.org','id': 1,'caption': '''Configure the home page URL''','desc': '''Configures the default home page URL in <ph name="PRODUCT_NAME">$1<ex>Google Chrome</ex></ph> and prevents users from changing it.The home page is the page opened by the Home button.
