Portal User asked a question.
Is there a definitive list or KB article on which browsers are supported for Cloud|SaaS Metering and in which agent versions?

Hi All,
I discovered the hard way that SaaS discovery for the new Chromium version of Edge is only supported in the Windows 6.50 agents.

Hi Tom,
but this could be found in the 6.5.0 release note that is was just added to this version. See https://community.flexera.com/s/feed/0D51r00008Os1cSCAR

This should be in the System Requirements document but from memory all are support except now Safari which was dropped as a SaaS extension a few months/versions ago. Though remember if using Firefox you'll need to also specifically enable it in your agent config as well as in the SMACC.
Thanks, I got the Win agent details from the latest System Requirements doc but there's no "Cloud Application Discovery and
Metering" section for MAC agents in that doc. So, if Safari is now dropped do we know which browsers are supported on MAC's (6.4 agent +)?
I would assume as its not present it is not supported on any browser for the MacOS. I have looked over previous Sys Req docs I still have and it briefly made an appearance for Safari but then disappeared taking the whole Cloud metering section from the MacOS part of the document.
Fair enough, it's probably safe to say it's formally dropped for MAC's. Thanks for the help.
@Ciaran Moran and @Gert-Jan Kosterman looking over the latest 6.5.2 MacOS release notes it does have this correction line in it:
The Snow Inventory Agent for macOS can now correctly install the cloud metering extension for Google Chrome (PRB0043129).
So this suggests while they mention no cloud extensions in the system requirements Chrome is at least usable, if not mentioned anywhere.
@Tom Boyle - any chance you can look at the system requirements document and update it to include what extensions are supported on MacOS please?
I don't produce the Knowledge content.
I have worked on the migration of content from our old platform to the Snow Community which is why my name is against a large number of the articles.
If you have feedback relevant to the article please add it to the discussion section of that article so that can be fed back to the relevant team.
Hi Joseph,
where did you read Safari was dropped as a SAAS extension since on https://www.snowsoftware.com/int/support/current-product-versionsit it shows for SNOW INVENTORY AGENT FOR MACOS 6.2.0: Safari was added. And newer versions don't inform us of it being removed again?
regards,
Gert-Jan.
Hi Gert-Jan,
As mentioned it was previously there in 6.2.0 however it got removed for a publicly unknown reason.
I found this out during attendance of a Snow partner engineers course last week, so as you would expect it should be mentioned in the later release notes for the versions of the Mac Agent beyond 6.2.0 but I cannot see anything.
