Setup ChromeOS kiosk mode from the Google Admin console (PWA)

Updated yesterday

Before you can use your ChromeOS device, you need to set up ChromeOS kiosk mode from the Google Admin console.

Indeed, each ChromeOS device is linked to your Google Admin console in order to remotely manage it.

Create a dedicated Organisation Unit

You need to create an OU dedicated to the digital signage. Every device in this OU will be set in Kiosk mode and will automatically launch the Comeen Play application when the device is booted.
