# White Labeling the Chromebook Extension

## What

It was previously possible to customize the user-visible information for the FileWave Inventory Extension. It was possible to customize icons, name and description. This involved:

1. Download [chromebook-whiteboxing.zip](https://kb.filewave.com/attachments/38) and modify the data inside (adding a new icon, description, etc.)
2. Create a support Ticket titled "Chromebook Custom Extension" and attach your new modified Zip File
3. Wait till we send back your "whiteboxed" extension then continue to the "How to publish" section below

## When/Why

As part of an overhaul of the extension to leverage new APIs and enhancements the ability to publish it with customizations is removed for now. If this returns in a future version then this article will be updated.

## How

This customization is not possible in FileWave 15.4+ and this article remains to make customers aware of the change. You would use the inventory extension as outlined in [Chromebook Client Pre-Requisites](https://kb.filewave.com/books/evaluation-guide/page/chromebook-client-pre-requisites "Chromebook Client Pre-Requisites") rather than this customized method.

## Digging Deeper

This was the actual process to publish in the past.

The ZIP file contained:

- icon\_.png (so far we have 19, 38, 128 as size)
- data.json

**data.json**

```json
{
"name"``: "<NAME_HERE>"``,
"description"``: "<DESCRIPTION_HERE>"
}
```
