Chrome OS devices, such as Chromebooks, can be managed in Systems Manager using the MDM API provided by Google. Managing Chrome OS devices requires a Google Apps for Business or Education account and may require additional licensing through Google. This article will discuss how to link Chrome OS devices to Systems Manager via the Google Management console.
This article refers to the original set of Chrome OS APIs, which are supported for both Google education and business customers. There is a new set of MDM APIs launched in March 2018 discussed here that SM also supports, which is only available for Google Enterprise licensed customers. Instructions for those configurations are covered in this article.
For more information on these steps or regarding automatic enrollment, refer to the guide for Enrolling Chrome devices.
Chrome OS devices managed within Google Apps will now automatically appear in Systems Manager, where assorted information regarding the device will be available.
Note: Disabling Chrome OS device management automatically removes all Chrome devices from the client list.
