Deploying uBlock Origin: configuration

uBO supports being configured through central policies, see browser documentation for administrators:

• Chromium: "Configuring Apps and Extensions by Policy"
• Firefox: "Managed storage manifests"

advancedSettings

The purpose of the advancedSettings property is to set the values of various advanced settings.

Each entry in the array is an array consisting of a pair of name-value strings. Each name string must be a supported advanced setting, and each value string must properly resolve to a supported value.

Every valid entry will be used to overwrite the corresponding default advanced setting, and will also become read-only, i.e. the user won't be able to change it.

Example:

{
    "advancedSettings": [
        [ "disableWebAssembly", "true" ]
    ]
}

disableDashboard

Set to true to prevent access to uBO's dashboard.

disabledPopupPanelParts

An array of strings, where each string refer to a part of the popup panel which should be removed from view. Current supported named parts:

• globalStats: remove access to "Blocked since install" statistic.
• basicTools: remove access to basic tools.
• extraTools: remove access to per-site switches.
• firewall: remove access to the overview pane.

toOverwrite

The properties in the toOverwrite branch will wholly replace the corresponding local settings. Currently, the following properties are supported:

trustedSiteDirectives

The trustedSiteDirectives property is an array of string, each of which must resolve into a valid trusted-site directive, used to dictate where uBO must be disabled.

All the directives will be used to wholly replace the local trusted-site directives, including the built-in ones.

See documentation on how to create valid trusted-site directives: "How to mark a web site as trusted"

toAdd

The properties in the toAdd branch will append to the already present local settings. Currently, the following properties are supported:

trustedSiteDirectives

The trustedSiteDirectives property is an array of string, each of which must resolve into a valid trusted-site directive, used to dictate where uBO must be disabled.

The directives will be appended to the local ones.
