If you have Credential Protection, you can set up its features for your organization when you deploy the Dashlane browser extension.
Credential Protection deployment using macOS and Jamf

This article explains how to create a new Jamf policy to deploy the Dashlane browser extension on Mac computers. After you deploy, the extension will be added to the Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox browser on all managed Mac devices.

Tip: If you use Jamf to deploy to Chrome, you can further customize the deployment to give your members a more tailored experience. You can stop the Dashlane account-creation window from appearing when you deploy, customize the account creation screen with your organization’s name, and disable Chrome’s built-in password manager.

If you want to deploy the extension to Windows devices, use GPO or Intune.

  3. In the search bar, enter "upload" and select Application & Custom Settings. Then select Upload.
  4. Select Add.
  5. For Preference Domain, enter “com.google.Chrome”.

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
    <key>ExtensionSettings</key>
    <dict>
        <key>fdjamakpfbbddfjaooikfcpapjohcfmg</key>
        <dict>
            <key>installation_mode</key>
            <string>normal_installed</string>
            <key>update_url</key>
           <string>https://prod.extensions.dashlane.com/dashlane/extension.xml</string>

With Jamf in Chrome, you can further customize the account creation process for members:

  1. Select Add.
  2. For Preference Domain, enter: “com.google.Chrome.extensions.fdjamakpfbbddfjaooikfcpapjohcfmg”
  3. For Property list, enter: 
    <?xml version=“1.0” encoding=“UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC “-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN” “http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd”>
<plist version=“1.0”>
<dict>
        <key>team_key</key>
        <string>TEAM KEY</string>
        <key>silent_deploy</key>
        <false/>
        <key>is_extension_mass_deployed</key>
        <true/>
    </dict>
</plist>
    • To stop the Dashlane account-creation window from appearing when you deploy, change the silent_deploy to “true”. If set to “false”, the Dashlane account creation screen will appear after you deploy the extension.
    • Customize the account creation screen with your organization’s name by including the team key. To find the team key in the Admin Console, select Users, the 3-dot menu, and then Share invite link. The team key is after "team=".

    • To disable Chrome’s built-in password manager, add this to “com.Google.Chrome.plist”: 
      <key>PasswordManagerEnabled</key>
<false />

The extension will now be deployed to Google Chrome browsers on all managed Mac devices.

Make sure you import your passwords to Dashlane before deleting them in the browser.
