Specifies which pages in the web context have access to the system's geolocation devices (if the app has permission to access this capability) and access to the clipboard.

 

Remarks

If more than one rule is defined, then the order of the rules is important.

To define the Match attribute with an IRI for a web resource, you can specify only secure "https:" sites - unsecure "http:" sites aren't allowed. If you specify a "http:" site, you get a schema semantic check validation error.

For any values that have a scheme in Windows 8.1 (version 6.3.0), the manifest only permits secure "https:" scheme. The manifest fails any other scheme. This rule doesn't apply on Windows 8 apps for backward compatibility.
