WorkerNavigator.permissions

This is an experimental technology
Because this technology's specification has not stabilized, check the compatibility table for usage in various browsers. Also note that the syntax and behavior of an experimental technology is subject to change in future versions of browsers as the specification changes.

The WorkerNavigator.permissions read-only property returns a Permissions object that can be used to query and update permission status of APIs covered by the Permissions API.

Syntax

permissionsObj = self.permissions

Value

A Permissions object.

Examples

self.permissions.query({name:'notifications'}).then(function(result) {
  if (result.state === 'granted') {
    showNotification();
  } else if (result.state === 'prompt') {
    requestNotificationPermission()
  }
});
