Troubleshooting

If the extension isn't showing up, isn't enabled, or isn't functioning as expected, it is likely you have not enabled extended MV2 support. Your other MV2 extensions likely work because they are grandfathered in.  

How do I enable MV2 extensions in the Google Admin Console?

    • Log into the Google Admin Console (admin.google.com).
    • Navigate to Devices > Chrome > Settings.
    • Select Organizational Units (Use either the root OU or specific OUs where Securly extensions are deployed)
    • Under Users & Browsers, go to the Apps & Extensions section.
    • Find the setting for Manifest V2 extension availability
    • Change to Enable manifest v2 extensions
    • Save your changes to ensure the setting is applied.
