Unable to configure Firefox on Mac with provisioning profile

I'm trying to configure Firefox on Mac using our MDM. The goal is ultimately to control a bunch of settings, but I'm trying to start simple by just installing the 1Password extension.

When I deploy this .mobileconfig file, nothing seems to happen to Firefox. I made this by following the example at https://github.com/mozilla/policy-templates/blob/master/mac/org.mozilla.firefox.plist but it doesn't seem to work and I am not sure how to debug.

I'll note that the forum software stripped the Doctype directive, but I can't attach it, and I can't code block it, so I can put it up on GitHub if that's easier, but hopefully this is enough.

If that isn't a Mozilla created then you should ask the site or whomever created it for support on installing it or post to site that has users familiar with that program to diagnosis the issue.

The program I'm trying to get help with is Firefox. Is this not the site for Firefox support?
