List of origins allowing all HTTP authentication

Computer and userIntune-readyAllHttpAuthSchemesAllowedForOrigins

Supported on Microsoft Windows 7 or later

What it does

Setting the policy specifies for which origins to allow all the HTTP authentication schemes Brave supports regardless of the AuthSchemes policy. Format the origin pattern according to this format (https://support.google.com/chrome/a?p=url_blocklist_filter_format). Up to 1,000 exceptions can be defined in AllHttpAuthSchemesAllowedForOrigins. Wildcards are allowed for the host component (e.g., '*:8000' matches all hosts on port 8000). To match all schemes or all ports, omit the component entirely (e.g., 'example.com' matches any scheme and any port). A hostname (e.g., 'example.com') also matches its subdomains. To match a host exactly and exclude its subdomains, prepend it with a dot (e.g., '.example.com'). To match all origins, use a single asterisk ('*'). Example value: https://example.com example.com *:8000 *

  • Some Microsoft policies use built-in Policy CSP pages whose area names don't match the ADMX file name, so verify the candidate against Microsoft Learn before deployment.
