permissions.remove()
Ask to give up the permissions listed in the given permissions.Permissions object.
The Permissions argument may contain either an origins property, which is an array of host permissions, or a permissions property, which is an array of API permissions, or both. Permissions must come from the set of permissions defined in the optional_permissions manifest.json key.
This is an asynchronous function that returns a Promise.

const permissionToRemove = { permissions: ["history"], }; async function remove() { console.log("removing"); const removed = await browser.permissions.remove(permissionToRemove); console.log(removed); } document.querySelector("#remove").addEventListener("click", remove); Example extensions
