    What is the current status of Chromebook support in MaaS and where can I find current granular config documentation for this?

    Under the IBM Setup Guide link there is no Chromebrook setup guide, can one be made available for access?

    Hello all - we have our integration guide here: https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/support-chrome-os

    As for detailed documentation on Chrome management, we generally default to Googles docs because the MaaS360 implementation is still in a beta state, and there are some requirements that lie on the Google side that we can't work around.

    -The ChromeOS management services must be enabled in a Google admin console (this is a billable service with a 30 day trial).

    -Devices do not enroll directly in MaaS360 - they enroll with Google, and we sync the device information over.  The OS itself isn't manageable exclusively by our services.

    -Our policy implementation is still in early release, and it does not contain the full set of all APIs available in the Google console, so we want to make sure that our clients understand the full capabilities.

    This is a good place to get started: https://support.google.com/chrome/a/answer/1289314?hl=en
