I'm trying to install multiple Root CA's using Firefox policies. I have a folder with 50 Certificates and while I know I can specify them each individually using "Certificates | Install" like in the example below, I wanted to know if there was a way to point to a whole folder and install those certs since it is way less messy that way.

I know the documentation says you can specify specific paths to files like so Example:

{ 

 "policies": {
   "Certificates": {
     "Install": ["cert1.der", "/home/username/cert2.pem"]
   }
 }

}

But I was trying to do something like this (So far unsucessfully): "Install": ["/path/to/folder/*.crt"] or "Install": ["/path/to/folder/*"] or "Install": ["/path/to/folder/"] or "Install": ["/path/to/folder"]

I also know there are other ways to install certs to Firefox programmatically but I liked how simple the .json method was.

That is not possible via policies.
