Site search settings
Last updated October 31, 2024

This policy allows administrators to set a designated enterprise search aggregator that will provide search recommendations and results within the address bar when triggered by a specific keyword. Users can initiate a search by typing the keyword specified in the shortcut field with or without the @ prefix (e.g. @work), followed by Space or Tab, in the address bar. The following fields are required: name, shortcut, search_url, suggest_url. The name field corresponds to the search engine name shown to the user in the address bar. The shortcut field corresponds to the keyword that the user enters to trigger the search. The shortcut can include plain words and characters, but cannot include spaces or start with the @ symbol. Shortcuts must be unique. The search_url field specifies the URL on which to search. Enter the web address for the search engine's results page, and use '{searchTerms}' in place of the query. The suggest_url field specifies the URL that provides search suggestions. If suggest_url contains '{searchTerms}', then Chrome will obtain search suggestions by a GET request to the URL replacing '{searchTerms}' with the user's search query. Otherwise, a POST request will be made, the the user's query will be passed in the POST params under key 'query'. The icon_url field specifies the URL to an image that will be used on the search suggestions. A default icon will be used when this field is not set. It's recommended to use a favicon (example https://www.google.com/favicon.ico). On Microsoft® Windows®, this policy is only available on instances that are joined to a Microsoft® Active Directory® domain, joined to Microsoft® Azure® Active Directory® or enrolled in Chrome Browser Cloud Management. On macOS, this policy is only available on instances that are managed via MDM, joined to a domain via MCX or enrolled in Chrome Browser Cloud Management.
