Steps

  1. Enroll devices and apply a Kiosk & Signage (Chrome Enterprise) management license via the Google Admin console
  2. Configure a kiosk app/PWA policy so the device boots directly into the signage app — done via the Admin console or programmatically via the Chrome Policy API
  3. Authenticate API calls with OAuth2 using a Google Workspace admin account or service account holding the relevant Admin SDK / Chrome Management scopes
  4. Use the Admin SDK Directory API's chromeosdevices resource to list, retrieve, update, or deprovision devices
  5. Use the Chrome Management API's customers.telemetry.devices resource (chromemanagement.googleapis.com) to pull fleet telemetry (CPU, memory, network, OS update status, kiosk app status)
  6. Build the actual signage/kiosk experience as a Progressive Web App per ChromeOS kiosk-app guidance, since content/playback logic lives in the app, not the management API
