Hello olivier,
try this :
browsers:// URL
Here is it some information about settings of lockdown
Hi Christophe,
Thanks for your answer.
I always try that before but it doesn't works.
Is it possible to add a setting after : Launch://com.android.chrome
For example like with a shortcut under Win10 : Launch://com.android.chrome "https://my-url"
Try this in Lockdown as well:
intent://my_url#Intent;scheme=https;action=android.intent.action.VIEW;component=com.android.chrome/com.android.chrome.Main;end
Hi T. J,
There seems to be typo in your post or display problem in this forum GUI. I believe you meant the following in one single line:
intent://my_url#Intent;scheme=https;action=android.intent.action.VIEW;component=
com.android.chrome/com.android.chrome.Main;end
Thank to you: Raymond and TJ for your answers.
Unfortunately, your solution does not work because I have the following error: activity not found.
Hello.
Try that, It works for me :
Intent://YOURURL#Intent;scheme=http;action=android.intent.action.VIEW;component=com.android.chrome;end
or
Intent://YOURURL#Intent;scheme=https;package=com.android.chrome;end
Hello Olivier,
Thank you for your post, please try following -
<intent:https://<URL>#Intent;action=com.google.chrome.action.VIEW;end>
please replace <URL> part with the exact URL address you need the device users to access.
OR
try blocking all other browsers using App Run Control and then to use browser:// or browsers:// to get the URL opened using chrome.
Regards,
Was there an update to this?
I have looked through every possible forum discussion with various solutions with no success. I am also getting activity not found.
Thank you
To be sure: You only want to set some kind of "starting page" or really different links in the lock down?
And additional question: You are using managed google play account or not?
Hi Martin,
Please list out what you have tried but failed.
Also, If you got message about "activity not found", that can be due to
1. your chrome brower completely disabled in Settings, or with Application-Run-Control or Feature-Control policies
2. you have not whitelist Chrome in your lockdown or with Application-Run-Control policiy
3. the chrome browser on your device has a very different bundle-ID or activity name different from the usual ones in other device brands/models. This is very very unlikely, but is still possible for some small brand devices that use the standard source code base but have modified app/activity name before compilation for some special reason(s).
Hi Rafaël,
Apologies on the late reply.
Correct. What I want it to launch to a starting page in chrome.
I am attempting to configure this on Zebra MC9300 devices running Android 8.0.
Not using any managed Google Play account. I bypass this step directly and do not use any google account.
Hi Raymond,
I have attempted the following configurations:
intent:https://<URL>#Intent;action=com.google.chrome.action.VIEW;end
intent://<URL>#Intent;scheme=https;action=android.intent.action.VIEW;component=com.android.chrome/com.android.chrome.Main;end
browsers:// URL
browser:// URL
Ok, with bypassing every google account (managed google play is only generic with only the playstore in general as functionality) you get rid of the possibility to configure chrome (set startingpage etc.).
Same for the web-apps, only with managed playstore...
So, the only possibility is the script written before in the posts from Rémi already:
Intent://YOURURL#Intent;scheme=http;action=android.intent.action.VIEW;component=com.android.chrome;end
or
Intent://YOURURL#Intent;scheme=https;package=com.android.chrome;end
And maybe take a look in this thread: https://discussions.soti.net/thread/how-i-can-launch-a-local-url-in-chrome-using-lockdown-2/
Hey...
So I was able to manage it and have custom URL start in Chrome into my Lockdown
So basically create .cmd file which will contain:
sendintent -a "<URL>#Intent;action=android.intent.action.VIEW;component=com.android.chrome;end"
Into Lockdown put Custom and type script://%sdcard%/PATH/File.cmd
And here is a tricky part... you need to have additional tab for Chrome (Launch://com.android.chrome) provided into your Lockdown to make it work (at least it worked for me)
I don't have Chrome as blacklisted or anything like that From apps restrictions/Feature Control.
Most likely there is need to rebuild a HTML Template which will contain Chrome inside it
