Clarification about upgrading from the old edge to the new edge
Hi HotCakeX I think I didnt explain my question correctly
What I mean is that if in the classic edge browser my extension had storage under chrome.storage.sync or chrome.storage.local, when the new edge browser is installed with my extension, will the extension have the data from the previous edge saved under chrome.storage.sync or chrome.storage.local?
Thanks!
Edge classic and Microsoft extensions for it that are only available on Windows store supported syncing using "chrome.storage.sync" and "chrome.storage.local" ?
that's new
HotCakeX its an API of the extension you can save or get data:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/extensions/api-support/supported-apis#storage
in the classic edge it was browser.storage.sync and browser.storage.local- Yes but Chrome stuff are not supported in Edge classic so I don't know how they can be migrated to the new Edge.
but try searching if you want and keep us postedHotCakeX its the same API basically, just its implemented differently for edge and chrome (or the new edge browser which is based on chromium).
What I meant was that if the data that is saved by these API's in the classic edge will be migrated to the new edge so I would be able to access it with the new API in the new edge
