SharedStorageWorklet

Deprecated: This feature is no longer recommended. Though some browsers might still support it, it may have already been removed from the relevant web standards, may be in the process of being dropped, or may only be kept for compatibility purposes. Avoid using it, and update existing code if possible; see the compatibility table at the bottom of this page to guide your decision. Be aware that this feature may cease to work at any time.

The SharedStorageWorklet interface of the Shared Storage API represents the shared storage worklet for the current origin.

SharedStorageWorklet does not have its own properties or methods. Rather, it inherits the addModule() method from the Worklet interface. This method is used for adding a module.

Unlike a regular Worklet:

  • If the calling site has not included the Shared Storage API in a privacy sandbox enrollment process, calls to sharedStorageWorklet.addModule() will be rejected.
  • SharedStorageWorklet allows only a single module to be added, for privacy reasons. Even with a successful enrollment, repeated calls to addModule() on the same shared storage worklet will be rejected.

SharedStorageWorklet is accessed via WindowSharedStorage.worklet.

Examples

js
// Randomly assigns a user to a group 0 or 1
function getExperimentGroup() {
  return Math.round(Math.random());
}

async function injectContent() {
  // Add the module to the shared storage worklet
  await window.sharedStorage.worklet.addModule("ab-testing-worklet.js");

  // Assign user to a random group (0 or 1) and store it in shared storage
  window.sharedStorage.set("ab-testing-group", getExperimentGroup(), {
    ignoreIfPresent: true,
  });

  // Run the URL selection operation
  const fencedFrameConfig = await window.sharedStorage.selectURL(
    "ab-testing",
    [
      { url: `https://your-server.example/content/default-content.html` },
      { url: `https://your-server.example/content/experiment-content-a.html` },
    ],
    {
      resolveToConfig: true,
    },
  );

  // Render the chosen URL into a fenced frame
  document.getElementById("content-slot").config = fencedFrameConfig;
}

injectContent();
