Chrome not recognizing custom policies set for an extension

[Fahad Jameel]

I am trying to add a custom policy that I can read from my chrome extension. But for some reason chrome isn't even recognizing the policy as being set. When I go to chrome://policy/ nothing is being displayed.

I am following this article:  Configuring Apps and Extensions by Policy (chromium.org)

Hi Fahad,

Have you set up the schema in your manifest.json file? There's an example here: https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/reference/manifest/storage

I totally missed that. Got it working now with the schema.json file. 

schema.json

{

    "type": "object",

    "properties": {

        "tenant": {

            "title": "Tenant",

            "description": "Tenant Name",

            "type": "string"

        }

    }

}

manifest.json

storage: {

    managed_schema: "schema.json"

  },

Thanks!

Appreciate the follow up!

Our documentation there is definitely lacking - I'll see if we can get that updated.
