Hi, @m7fus (m7fus)
Thank you for posting on our Community page!
After some investigation, I found that your use case is not within Okta's purview. We do not deploy or manage third-party browser extensions.
I suggest you contact the browser’s company support.
Hope this helps!
Thank you for reaching out to our Community and have a great day!

Hi,
the custom extension is our own in house developed extension so we can add whatever is needed to the extension logic .
we just need a little guidance regarding okta capabilities that will allow us to enforce that our extension is installed at the moment a user login .
Hi, @m7fus (m7fus)
As previously mentioned, we cannot help with deployment of custom apps. You could check this article and see if it helps with your use case:

Hi,
the extension is already deployed we would just want to verify that its installed before the user loges in.
can we add custom javascript without a custom domain?
can we redirect to our own custom third MFA ?
we just need to verify with our own logic that the extension is installed if it does the user can proceed and log in , do you have any best practice for that?
