I am pushing out bookmarks company-wide through Intune on users Laptops. I spoke with Microsoft support and the configuration policy is created correctly and I followed Firefox's support page in creating them. It seems that the new JSON script that tells Firefox what bookmarks is unable to parse.

Anyone know if Firefox had an update that prevents intune from sending the JSON file?

Error message given through firefox.

"Unable to parse JSON for ManagedBookmarks"

I responded to your other question. Can you get me a copy of the JSON?

Or the actual XML from Intune?

You have a couple trailing commas, after BIM 360 and Hammertech.

I use jsonlint.com to find things like this.
