Hi there,

we trying to restrict internet access that used Mozilla Firefox on client computers through Microsoft Intune. 

We have already configured policy by uploading ADMX template & Custom OMA-URI as described in https://github.com/mozilla/policy-templates/blob/master/README.md

We are trying to add custom allowed web sites to "WebsiteFilter" OMA-URI ./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/Firefox~Policy~firefox/B_WebsiteFilter_Exceptions. added web sites are not allowed. my question is what is the best way to enter URLs (I mean format) to allow list & how I can used wild card to allow all the web sites of one specific domain. eg:- microsoft
