Chrome policy support in CEF v117?

[dasmann]

I need to add support for a certain Chrome policy within an embedded Cef browser window used within a WPF application. The policy is CloudAPAuthEnabled.

Is this programmatically possible? I have looked through this forum and it doesn't look like it, but I could be being an idiot and just not see it.

If not, then I could in theory programmatically add a registry entry to enable it in Chrome, but would it then be effective within the Cef embedded browser?

Many thanks in advance!

Chrome runtime supports Chrome policies. See https://github.com/chromiumembedded/cef/issues/3581

Thanks for this information. I'm kind of new to this, so can I clarify whether this then applies to CefSharp.Wpf (v117)?

If so, then is adding this to the command line args equivalent to the CloudAPAuthEnabled policy?

"--enable-chrome-browser-cloud-management"

Thanks for this clarity. It's a shame that its not possible in WPF. Do you know whether there is any hack/workaround?

Maybe you can use Wpf.HwndHost instead?
