Chrome extension identity.email empty

Question

I am trying to get email and id of user through chrome identity api.

I am doing this

  chrome.identity.getProfileUserInfo(function(userinfo){
    con         


        

Answer 1

The getProfileUserInfo documentation says:

• email: Empty if the user is not signed in or the identity.email manifest permission is not specified.
• id: Empty if the user is not signed in or (in M41+) the identity.email manifest permission is not specified.

Edit manifest.json to include both permissions:

"permissions": ["identity", "identity.email"]
