The permissions field in the app manifest controls the app's access to various sensitive APIs on the device (sometimes called WebAPIs). The permissions are described in the following tables.
The three levels of permission, in brief, are:
- Web apps: These only have a basic level of permissions, and don't have access to privileged or internal APIs.
- Privileged apps: These have all the permissions of web apps plus more. Hosted apps can't be privileged — they must be packaged apps.
- Internal (certified) apps: These have all the permissions of privileged and web apps plus more. Certified/internal apps can only be installed on a device by Mozilla or a device vendor; not 3rd party developers.
For more information on app types, see Types of packaged apps.
Note: If you use the App Manager/WebIDE to test your app, it will display an easy to read table of which permissions are allowed, denied, or require a prompt on the current device or simulator you are connected to.
