enterprise fleet management
# Option 1: Detect via UA-CH in your web app and warn users
# Server-side: read Sec-CH-UA-Platform and Sec-CH-UA-Platform-Version headers
# (requires Accept-CH: Sec-CH-UA-Platform, Sec-CH-UA-Platform-Version response header)
# Option 2: Use Chrome Browser Cloud Management
# Policy: BrowserLabsSettings → manage minimum OS requirements
# Report on devices that cannot upgrade
# Option 3: Chromium enterprise policy
# ChromiumPolicy.json:
# "SuppressUnsupportedOSWarning": true ← temporarily suppresses warning
# Note: suppressing the warning does not restore security updates
# Option 4: Google Admin console → Devices → Chrome → Reports
# Filter by OS version to identify macOS 12 machines in your fleet
# Export to CSV and triage by hardware model for upgrade eligibility
