Google for Android - Intune policy (problem with Json)

Question

Hi, team.

I have a problem with BrowsingDataLifetime option
https://chromeenterprise.google/policies/?policy=BrowsingDataLifetime

I want to clear all Chrome data each hour or if application was close. Every time I open Chrome. I need to see clear profile.

Android Chrome policy syntax (BrowsingDataLifetime options)

Perhaps there is another way to make Chrome open clean without any trace? Or please help to solve the problem with this option.

Thank you.

I`m using Intune to manage MDM devices. This is my JSON file:

{
"kind": "androidenterprise#managedConfiguration",
"productId": "app:com.android.chrome",
"managedProperty": [
{
"key": "BrowsingDataLifetime",
"valueString": "[{\"time_to_live_in_hours\": 24,\"data_types\": [\"browsing_history\"]},{\"time_to_live_in_hours\": 12,\"data_types\": [\"password_signin\",\"autofill\"]}]"
},
{
"key": "BrowserSignin",
"valueString": "0"
},
{
"key": "SafeBrowsingProtectionLevel",
"valueString": "1"
},
{
"key": "SavingBrowserHistoryDisabled",
"valueBool": true
},
{
"key": "IncognitoModeAvailability",
"valueString": "2"
},
{
"key": "HomepageLocation",
"valueString": "https://en.wikipedia.org"
}
]
}

This is what I see in Chrome

@Mountain Pond Thanks for posting in our Q&A.

For this issue, I have done a lot of reseach. I find that BrowsingDataLifetime setting works on Google Chrome (Android) since version 96.
https://chromeenterprise.google/policies/#BrowsingDataLifetime
Note: Non-Microsoft link, just for the reference.
Please make sure that the Google Chrome on the Android device is version 96 or later.

If the prerequisite is met, but this issue still exists, it is needed to check logs in the device to find the root cause. With Q&A limitation, it is suggested to create an online support ticket to handle this issue more effectively. It is free. Here is the online support link:

Thanks for understanding.
