contextualIdentities.ContextualIdentity

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:

• "cart"
• "circle"
• "gift"
• "vacation"
• "food"
• "fruit"
• "pet"
