Steps

  1. Confirm affected devices via the Chrome Management API device inventory, filtering for those still configured with the Chrome Sign Builder kiosk app ID (removed from the Chrome Web Store as of ChromeOS M150 / July 2026)
  2. Authenticate to the Chrome Policy API with a Chrome Enterprise admin service account
  3. Use the chrome.devices.kiosk.apps.ForceInstall policy schema to push a replacement kiosk web app (PWA or hosted web app) to the affected org unit
  4. Set Kiosk Apps Config policies to control the replacement app's auto-launch and single-app kiosk behavior
  5. Verify the policy resolved correctly via the Admin console UI or a policy-read call, since API and console changes are bidirectionally synced
  6. Roll out org-unit by org-unit rather than tenant-wide, since kiosk devices actively displaying signage will restart their kiosk session when the new policy resolves
