To use this API you must have the "scripting" permission and permission for the page's URL, either explicitly as a host permission or using the activeTab permission.

This is an asynchronous function that returns a Promise.

Syntax

js
let scripts = await browser.scripting.getRegisteredContentScripts( filter // object ) 

Parameters

filter Optional

scripting.ContentScriptFilter. A filter for the registered script details to return.

Return value

A Promise that fulfills with an array of scripting.RegisteredContentScript. If any error occurs, the promise is rejected.

Examples

This example returns all the registered content scripts:

js
// Register two content scripts. await browser.scripting.registerContentScripts([ { id: "script-1", js: ["script-1.js"], matches: ["*://example.com/*"], }, { id: "script-2", js: ["script-2.js"], matches: ["*://example.com/*"], }, ]); // Retrieve all content scripts. let scripts = await browser.scripting.getRegisteredContentScripts(); console.log(scripts.map((script) => script.id)); // ["script-1", "script-2"] // Only retrieve the second script. scripts = await browser.scripting.getRegisteredContentScripts({ ids: ["script-2"], }); console.log(scripts.map((script) => script.id)); // ["script-2"]
