Hi, I develop a firefox kiosk application for an IoT device and I'm wondering what setting disables this message?

This message popped up on a release of our software which hadn't applied a policies.json file yet, is it safe to assume it will be covered by the following policy which we have on a later release?

   "UserMessaging": {
     "WhatsNew": false,
     "ExtensionRecommendations": false,
     "FeatureRecommendations": false,
     "UrlbarInterventions": false,
     "SkipOnboarding": true,
     "MoreFromMozilla": false,
     "Locked": true
   },

DisableFirefoxAccounts and the newer DisableAccounts policies will both work. Accounts have been renamed from "Firefox" to "Mozilla" so the policy name dropped the "Firefox" part. about:policies reflects this but the online documentation still shows the older name.

This message is related to accounts so you could apply the "DisableAccounts" policy as well for extra coverage.

Hi @zeroknight, thank you for the reply!

We have "DisableFirefoxAccounts": true, in our latest policy file. Is this the setting you're referring to?
