2. Self-hosted deployment​

For organizations that need to control the extension binary:

  1. Download the latest .crx file from appilot.com
  2. Host it on your internal server
  3. Configure Chrome policy to install from your server:
{
  "ExtensionInstallForcelist": [
    "EXTENSION_ID;https://your-server.com/updates.xml"
  ]
}

3. Manual distribution​

Distribute the .zip file to users for manual installation:

  1. Users open chrome://extensions
  2. Enable Developer mode
  3. Click Load unpacked and select the extracted folder

Pre-configuration​

Set default configuration for all users via Chrome managed storage:
