If you're trying to get telemetry experiments working on a different browser channel and keep receiving error messages, ensure that the '''channel''' value is correctly set under '''firefox-manifest.json'''.


You can change the experiments browser channel by going through the following steps:
* Open your '''firefox-manifest.json''' file under the telemetry experiment folder
* Open your '''firefox-manifest.json''' file under the telemetry experiment folder
* You'll need to change the following value: '''"channel": ["nightly"]'''
* You'll need to change the following value: '''"channel": ["nightly"]'''
** Examples: Aurora: '''"channel": ["aurora"]''', BETA: '''"channel": ["beta"]'''
** Examples: Aurora: '''"channel": ["aurora"]''', BETA: '''"channel": ["beta"]'''
You'll receive a similar error message if there's a channel mismatch. Example, trying to install the experiment on Aurora but the .JSON file specifies Nightly.
