What data it declares

What Chrome asks you to allow

Derived from the manifest by Chrome's documented rules; the dialog's exact wording depends on your Chrome version and language. Chrome asks again if an update requests more.

Reaches your browsing data or every site

Worth knowing

Routine for an extension

Pages it runs its code on

It runs its own code on specific pages only: 5 site patterns.

Show the remaining 2
  • https://teams.live.com/* only teams.live.com
  • https://teams.cloud.microsoft/* only teams.cloud.microsoft

A content script is code the extension injects into pages matching these patterns. On those pages it can read and change what you see, whether or not a host permission is listed above.

Sites that can connect to it

Web pages matching these patterns can open a messaging channel to it: 2 site patterns.

Declared as externally connectable in the manifest: a page on these sites can exchange messages with the extension, for example to tell it you have signed in. It does not give the page access to your browser.

What the store shows

Has it asked for more over time?

This is the question a permission list on its own cannot answer. An extension that shipped narrow and widened later is a different proposition from one that always asked for the same thing.

  1. Asked for more permissions (15, was 14) (changed: site access, pages it runs its code on, browser permissions)
  2. Asked for fewer permissions (14, was 15) (changed: site access, pages it runs its code on, sites that can connect to it)

Versions we have seen

  1. Version 1.6.1
  2. Version 1.6.0 · Asked for more permissions (15, was 14) (changed: site access, pages it runs its code on, browser permissions)
  3. Version 1.5.0 · Asked for fewer permissions (14, was 15) (changed: site access, pages it runs its code on, sites that can connect to it)
  4. Version 1.4.4
  5. Version 1.4.3
