Manage Search Engines

Options

Description

Lets you configure a list of up to 10 search engines, one of which must be marked as the default search engine. With Microsoft Edge version 100, you can configure up to 100 engines. You don't need to specify the encoding. With Microsoft Edge version 80, the suggest_url and image_search_url parameters are optional. The optional parameter, image_search_post_params (consists of comma-separated name/value pairs), is available starting in Microsoft Edge version 80. With Microsoft Edge version 83, you can enable search engine discovery with the optional allow_search_engine_discovery parameter. This parameter must be the first item in the list. If allow_search_engine_discovery isn't specified, search engine discovery is disabled by default. With Microsoft Edge version 84, you can set this policy as a recommended policy to allow search provider discovery. You don't need to add the optional allow_search_engine_discovery parameter. With Microsoft Edge version 100, setting this policy as a recommended policy also allows users to manually add new search engines from their Microsoft Edge settings. If you enable this policy, users can't add, remove, or change any search engine in the list. Users can set their default search engine to any search engine in the list. If you disable or don't configure this policy, users can modify the search engines list as desired. If the 'DefaultSearchProviderSearchURL' (Default search provider search URL) policy is set, this policy (ManagedSearchEngines) is ignored. The user must restart their browser to finish applying this policy. Example value: [ { "allow_search_engine_discovery": true }, { "is_default": true, "keyword": "example1.com", "name": "Example1", "search_url": "https://www.example1.com/search?q={searchTerms}", "suggest_url": "https://www.example1.com/qbox?query={searchTerms}" }, { "image_search_post_params": "content={imageThumbnail},url={imageURL},sbisrc={SearchSource}", "image_search_url": "https://www.example2.com/images/detail/search?iss=sbiupload", "keyword": "example2.com", "name": "Example2", "search_url": "https://www.example2.com/search?q={searchTerms}", "suggest_url": "https://www.example2.com/qbox?query={searchTerms}" }, { "encoding": "UTF-8", "image_search_url": "https://www.example3.com/images/detail/search?iss=sbiupload", "keyword": "example3.com", "name": "Example3", "search_url": "https://www.example3.com/search?q={searchTerms}", "suggest_url": "https://www.example3.com/qbox?query={searchTerms}" }, { "keyword": "example4.com", "name": "Example4", "search_url": "https://www.example4.com/search?q={searchTerms}" } ]
