Configure favorites

Configures a list of managed favorites. The policy creates a list of favorites. Each favorite contains the keys "name" and "url," which hold the favorite's name and its target. You can configure a subfolder by defining a favorite without an "url" key but with an extra "children" key that contains a list of favorites as defined earlier (some of which may be folders again). Microsoft Edge amends incomplete URLs as if they were submitted via the Address Bar, for example "microsoft.com" becomes "https://microsoft.com/". These favorites are placed in a folder that can't be modified by the user (but the user can choose to hide it from the favorites bar). By default the folder name is "Managed favorites" but you can change it by adding to the list of favorites a dictionary containing the key "toplevel_name" with the desired folder name as the value. Managed favorites aren't synced to the user account and can't be modified by extensions. Example value: [ { "toplevel_name": "My managed favorites folder" }, { "name": "Microsoft", "url": "microsoft.com" }, { "name": "Bing", "url": "bing.com" }, { "children": [ { "name": "Microsoft Edge Insiders", "url": "www.microsoftedgeinsider.com" }, { "name": "Microsoft Edge", "url": "www.microsoft.com/windows/microsoft-edge" } ], "name": "Microsoft Edge links" } ]
