Configuring the FortiClient Web Filter extension
You must configure the FortiClient Chromebook Web Filter extension to enable the Google Admin console to communicate with FortiClient EMS.
FortiClient EMS hosts the services that assign endpoint profiles of web filtering policies to groups in the Google domain. FortiClient EMS also handles the logs and web access statistics sent from the FortiClient Web Filter extensions.

FortiClient EMS is the profile server. |

- Create a text file that contains the following text:

}
For example:
{
"ProfileServerUrl": { "Value": "https://ems.mydomain.com:8443"}
}
- In the Google Admin console, go to Device management > Chrome Management > App Management > FortiClient Chrome Web Filter Extension > User settings.
- Click a domain or organization unit (OU).
- In the right pane, under Configure, upload a new configuration file.
