Hello,
I'd like to understand what SharePoint Online service worker does, and is it possible to register your own service workers?
Why I'm asking this - I've registered service worker with scope https://tenant.sharepoint.com/sites/, so that I can intercept events from any site collection in my tenant. But I've noticed that SharePoint Online also has service worker registered in root scope - odspserviceworkerproxy.aspx.
If I register my service worker with more specific scope, then only my service worker will receive all the requests, say, from site https://tenant.sharepoint.com/sites/xxx.
So, what does SharePoint Online service worker do, so I can understand, what will be the impact of adding my service worker?
I also had a discussion here, but didn't really get a definitive answer. Microsoft 365 support suggested me to create a discussion here as well, in hopes that some developer will provide information.
Thank you!
