contextualIdentities.ContextualIdentity

{{AddonSidebar}} 

The contextualIdentities.ContextualIdentity type describes a single contextual identity.

Type

Values of this type are objects. They contain the following properties:

• cookieStoreId

  • : string. The cookie store ID for the identity. Since contextual identities don’t share cookie stores, this serves as a unique identifier.

• color

  • : string. The color for the identity. This will be shown in tabs belonging to this identity. The following values are valid:

    • “blue”
    • “turquoise”
    • “green”
    • “yellow”
    • “orange”
    • “red”
    • “pink”
    • “purple”
    • “toolbar”

    The value “toolbar” represents a theme-dependent color. Identities with color “toolbar” will be displayed in the same color as text in the toolbar (corresponding to the theme key "toolbar_field_text").

• colorCode

  • : string. A hex code representing the exact color used for the identity. For example: "#37adff". In the special case of the “toolbar” color, colorCode is always "#7c7c7d", regardless of the displayed color.

• icon

  • : string. The name of an icon for the identity. This will be shown in the URL bar for tabs belonging to this identity. The following values are valid:

    • “fingerprint”
    • “briefcase”
    • “dollar”
    • “cart”
    • “circle”
    • “gift”
    • “vacation”
    • “food”
    • “fruit”
    • “pet”
    • “tree”
    • “chill”
    • “fence”

• iconUrl

  • : string. A full resource:// URL pointing to the identity’s icon. For example: “resource://usercontext-content/fingerprint.svg”.

• name

  • : string. Name of the identity. This will be shown in the URL bar for tabs belonging to this identity. Note that names don’t have to be unique.
