Is there any parameter or group policy similar to Chrome "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Google\Chrome\AutoSelectCertificateForUrls]", as we implemented application with Certificate sign-in, it pop-up every time when navigating to different on-prem servers, we enabled Group policy for MSEdge & Chrome, but need to do same for Mozilla Firefox.

I need expert advice on this subject matter.

Chosen solution

I figured out by following the instructions on https://github.com/mozilla/policy-templates/blob/master/windows/en-US/firefox.adml

Set Group Policy Preferences (JSON on one line) Enabled Options: {"security.default_personal_cert": "Select Automatically"}

OR

Set this Policy registry value

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Mozilla\Firefox] "DisableAppUpdate"=dword:00000001 "Preferences"="{\"security.default_personal_cert\": \"Select Automatically\"}"
