Verifying Configuration

ChromeOS endpoints should now start appearing within the related LimaCharlie Organization's sensor list.

You can verify that the configuration was completed successfully by verifying on an individual endpoint.

  1. Confirm that the LimaCharlie Sensor extension appears in the list of extensions.

  2. Verify that the installation key got applied on the endpoint by going to:  chrome://policy and look for the LimaCharlie Sensor. There you should see the Policy name set to installation_key and the Policy Value set with your installation key. The Source should list “Cloud”.
