Import bookmarks with a policies.json script

I'm setting up a cloud-init to make it easier to deploy Linux workstations. I want to display the various links to my sites on my Firefox browser. Bookmark my services. Do you think this is possible? I've already applied a rule to retrieve certificates, but it seems complicated for bookmarks.

Here's an extract  :

{

 "policies": {
   "Bookmarks": [
     {
       "Title": "Main",
       "URL": "https://service.net",
       "Folder": "Bookmarks Toolbar"
     },
     {
       "Title": "Service 1",
       "URL": "https://service1.net",
       "Folder": "Bookmarks Toolbar"
     },
     {
       "Title": "Service 2",
       "URL": "https://service2.net",
       "Folder": "Bookmarks Toolbar"
     },
     {
       "Title": "Documentation",
       "URL": "https://docs.net",
       "Folder": "Bookmarks Toolbar"
     }
   ]
 }

}

Best Regards,

Dylan

Okay I found the solution, there was a frame proposed by Firefox but it didn't work with my script so I modified it and it works perfectly.

{

 "policies": {
   "Bookmarks": [
     {
       "Title": "Documentation",
       "URL": "https://internal.docs/",
       "Placement": "toolbar",
       "Folder": "Infrastructures"
     },
     {
       "Title": "Internal Portal",
       "URL": "https://internal.portal/auth/",
       "Placement": "toolbar",
       "Folder": "Infrastructures"
     },

On the policies script, I've also made a rule about certificates, so everything works.

Best Regards,

Dylan
