Problem

Sealights Browser Extension requires permission for all the pages I can access with my browser. I would like to restrict it to my SCM and application servers.

Solution

  1. Open Chrome Extensions page

  2. Locate the Sealights Chrome Extension and click on 'Details' button

  3. In the Site Access section, select ‘On specific sites’ and define your white listed sites for access: your SCM and the applications servers at least.



    If you are a developer or if you’re running your application locally from time to time, you'll need to add addresses for localhost and 127.0.0.1

Defining only your SCM as part of the allowed sites list will block you from reporting Manual Tests via the chrome extension.

These restrictions can be applied via an IT Group Policy as well
