add_ContainsFullScreenElementChanged

Notifies when the ContainsFullScreenElement property changes.

public HRESULT add_ContainsFullScreenElementChanged(ICoreWebView2ContainsFullScreenElementChangedEventHandler * eventHandler, EventRegistrationToken * token)

This means that an HTML element inside the WebView is entering fullscreen to the size of the WebView or leaving fullscreen. This event is useful when, for example, a video element requests to go fullscreen. The listener of ContainsFullScreenElementChanged can then resize the WebView in response.

    // Register a handler for the ContainsFullScreenChanged event.
    CHECK_FAILURE(m_webView->add_ContainsFullScreenElementChanged(
        Callback<ICoreWebView2ContainsFullScreenElementChangedEventHandler>(
            [this](ICoreWebView2* sender, IUnknown* args) -> HRESULT {
                if (m_fullScreenAllowed)
                {
                    CHECK_FAILURE(
                        sender->get_ContainsFullScreenElement(&m_containsFullscreenElement));
                    if (m_containsFullscreenElement)
                    {
                        EnterFullScreen();
                    }

                    {
                        ExitFullScreen();

                return S_OK;
            })
            .Get(),
        nullptr));

add_ContentLoading

Add an event handler for the ContentLoading event.

public HRESULT add_ContentLoading(ICoreWebView2ContentLoadingEventHandler * eventHandler, EventRegistrationToken * token)

ContentLoading fires before any content is loaded, including scripts added with AddScriptToExecuteOnDocumentCreated ContentLoading will not fire if a same page navigation occurs (such as through fragment navigations or history.pushState navigations). This follows the NavigationStarting and SourceChanged events and precedes the HistoryChanged and NavigationCompleted events.

add_DocumentTitleChanged

Add an event handler for the DocumentTitleChanged event.

public HRESULT add_DocumentTitleChanged(ICoreWebView2DocumentTitleChangedEventHandler * eventHandler, EventRegistrationToken * token)

The event fires when the DocumentTitle property of the WebView changes and may fire before or after the NavigationCompleted event.

    // Register a handler for the DocumentTitleChanged event.
    // This handler just announces the new title on the window's title bar.
    CHECK_FAILURE(m_webView->add_DocumentTitleChanged(
        Callback<ICoreWebView2DocumentTitleChangedEventHandler>(

                SetWindowText(m_appWindow->GetMainWindow(), title.get());
                return S_OK;
            })
            .Get(),
        &m_documentTitleChangedToken));

add_FrameNavigationCompleted

Add an event handler for the FrameNavigationCompleted event.

public HRESULT add_FrameNavigationCompleted(ICoreWebView2NavigationCompletedEventHandler * eventHandler, EventRegistrationToken * token)

    // Register a handler for the FrameNavigationCompleted event.
    // Check whether the navigation succeeded, and if not, do something.
    CHECK_FAILURE(m_webView->add_FrameNavigationCompleted(

FrameNavigationStarting fires when a child frame in the WebView requesting permission to navigate to a different URI. This will fire for redirects as well.

    // Register a handler for the FrameNavigationStarting event.
    // This handler will prevent a frame from navigating to a blocked domain.
    CHECK_FAILURE(m_webView->add_FrameNavigationStarting(

HistoryChange listen to the change of navigation history for the top level document.

public HRESULT add_HistoryChanged(ICoreWebView2HistoryChangedEventHandler * eventHandler, EventRegistrationToken * token)

Use HistoryChange to check if CanGoBack/CanGoForward value has changed. HistoryChanged also fires for using GoBack/GoForward. HistoryChanged fires after SourceChanged and ContentLoading. Add an event handler for the HistoryChanged event.

    // Register a handler for the HistoryChanged event.
    // Update the Back, Forward buttons.
    CHECK_FAILURE(m_webView->add_HistoryChanged(

        nullptr));

AddHostObjectToScript

Add the provided host object to script running in the WebView with the specified name.

public HRESULT AddHostObjectToScript(LPCWSTR name, VARIANT * object)

Host objects are exposed as host object proxies via window.chrome.webview.hostObjects.<name>. Host object proxies are promises and will resolve to an object representing the host object. The promise is rejected if the app has not added an object with the name. When JavaScript code access a property or method of the object, a promise is return, which will resolve to the value returned from the host for the property or method, or rejected in case of error such as there is no such property or method on the object or parameters are invalid. For example, when the application code does the following:

VARIANT object;
object.vt = VT_DISPATCH;
object.pdispVal = appObject;
webview->AddHostObjectToScript(L"host_object", &host);

JavaScript code in the WebView will be able to access appObject as following and then access attributes and methods of appObject:

let app_object = await window.chrome.webview.hostObjects.host_object;
let attr1 = await app_object.attr1;
let result = await app_object.method1(parameters);

Note that while simple types, IDispatch and array are supported, generic IUnknown, VT_DECIMAL, or VT_RECORD variant is not supported. Remote JavaScript objects like callback functions are represented as an VT_DISPATCH VARIANT with the object implementing IDispatch. The JavaScript callback method may be invoked using DISPID_VALUE for the DISPID. Nested arrays are supported up to a depth of 3. Arrays of by reference types are not supported. VT_EMPTY and VT_NULL are mapped into JavaScript as null. In JavaScript null and undefined are mapped to VT_EMPTY.

Additionally, all host objects are exposed as window.chrome.webview.hostObjects.sync.<name>. Here the host objects are exposed as synchronous host object proxies. These are not promises and calls to functions or property access synchronously block running script waiting to communicate cross process for the host code to run. Accordingly this can result in reliability issues and it is recommended that you use the promise based asynchronous window.chrome.webview.hostObjects.<name> API described above.

Synchronous host object proxies and asynchronous host object proxies can both proxy the same host object. Remote changes made by one proxy will be reflected in any other proxy of that same host object whether the other proxies and synchronous or asynchronous.

While JavaScript is blocked on a synchronous call to native code, that native code is unable to call back to JavaScript. Attempts to do so will fail with HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(ERROR_POSSIBLE_DEADLOCK).

Host object proxies are JavaScript Proxy objects that intercept all property get, property set, and method invocations. Properties or methods that are a part of the Function or Object prototype are run locally. Additionally any property or method in the array chrome.webview.hostObjects.options.forceLocalProperties will also be run locally. This defaults to including optional methods that have meaning in JavaScript like toJSON and Symbol.toPrimitive. You can add more to this array as required.

There's a method chrome.webview.hostObjects.cleanupSome that will best effort garbage collect host object proxies.

Host object proxies additionally have the following methods which run locally:

  • applyHostFunction, getHostProperty, setHostProperty: Perform a method invocation, property get, or property set on the host object. You can use these to explicitly force a method or property to run remotely if there is a conflicting local method or property. For instance, proxy.toString() will run the local toString method on the proxy object. But proxy.applyHostFunction('toString') runs toString on the host proxied object instead.

  • getLocalProperty, setLocalProperty: Perform property get, or property set locally. You can use these methods to force getting or setting a property on the host object proxy itself rather than on the host object it represents. For instance, proxy.unknownProperty will get the property named unknownProperty from the host proxied object. But proxy.getLocalProperty('unknownProperty') will get the value of the property unknownProperty on the proxy object itself.

  • sync: Asynchronous host object proxies expose a sync method which returns a promise for a synchronous host object proxy for the same host object. For example, chrome.webview.hostObjects.sample.methodCall() returns an asynchronous host object proxy. You can use the sync method to obtain a synchronous host object proxy instead: const syncProxy = await chrome.webview.hostObjects.sample.methodCall().sync()

  • async: Synchronous host object proxies expose an async method which blocks and returns an asynchronous host object proxy for the same host object. For example, chrome.webview.hostObjects.sync.sample.methodCall() returns a synchronous host object proxy. Calling the async method on this blocks and then returns an asynchronous host object proxy for the same host object: const asyncProxy = chrome.webview.hostObjects.sync.sample.methodCall().async()

  • then: Asynchronous host object proxies have a then method. This allows them to be awaitable. then will return a promise that resolves with a representation of the host object. If the proxy represents a JavaScript literal then a copy of that is returned locally. If the proxy represents a function then a non-awaitable proxy is returned. If the proxy represents a JavaScript object with a mix of literal properties and function properties, then the a copy of the object is returned with some properties as host object proxies.

All other property and method invocations (other than the above Remote object proxy methods, forceLocalProperties list, and properties on Function and Object prototypes) are run remotely. Asynchronous host object proxies return a promise representing asynchronous completion of remotely invoking the method, or getting the property. The promise resolves after the remote operations complete and the promises resolve to the resulting value of the operation. Synchronous host object proxies work similarly but block JavaScript execution and wait for the remote operation to complete.

Setting a property on an asynchronous host object proxy works slightly differently. The set returns immediately and the return value is the value that will be set. This is a requirement of the JavaScript Proxy object. If you need to asynchronously wait for the property set to complete, use the setHostProperty method which returns a promise as described above. Synchronous object property set property synchronously blocks until the property is set.

For example, suppose you have a COM object with the following interface

    [uuid(3a14c9c0-bc3e-453f-a314-4ce4a0ec81d8), object, local]
    interface IHostObjectSample : IUnknown
    {
        // Demonstrate basic method call with some parameters and a return value.
        HRESULT MethodWithParametersAndReturnValue([in] BSTR stringParameter, [in] INT integerParameter, [out, retval] BSTR* stringResult);

        // Demonstrate getting and setting a property.
        [propget] HRESULT Property([out, retval] BSTR* stringResult);
        [propput] HRESULT Property([in] BSTR stringValue);

        // Demonstrate native calling back into JavaScript.
        HRESULT CallCallbackAsynchronously([in] IDispatch* callbackParameter);
    };

We can add an instance of this interface into our JavaScript with AddHostObjectToScript. In this case we name it sample:

            VARIANT remoteObjectAsVariant = {};
            m_hostObject.query_to<IDispatch>(&remoteObjectAsVariant.pdispVal);
            remoteObjectAsVariant.vt = VT_DISPATCH;

            // We can call AddHostObjectToScript multiple times in a row without
            // calling RemoveHostObject first. This will replace the previous object
            // with the new object. In our case this is the same object and everything
            // is fine.
            CHECK_FAILURE(
                m_webView->AddHostObjectToScript(L"sample", &remoteObjectAsVariant));
            remoteObjectAsVariant.pdispVal->Release();

Then in the HTML document we can use this COM object via chrome.webview.hostObjects.sample:

        document.getElementById("getPropertyAsyncButton").addEventListener("click", async () => {
        const propertyValue = await chrome.webview.hostObjects.sample.property;
        document.getElementById("getPropertyAsyncOutput").textContent = propertyValue;
        });

        document.getElementById("getPropertySyncButton").addEventListener("click", () => {

        const propertyValue = document.getElementById("setPropertyAsyncInput").value;
        // The following line will work but it will return immediately before the property value has actually been set.
        // If you need to set the property and wait for the property to change value, use the setRemote function.
        chrome.webview.hostObjects.sample.property = propertyValue;
        document.getElementById("setPropertyAsyncOutput").textContent = "Set";
        });

        document.getElementById("setPropertyExplicitAsyncButton").addEventListener("click", async () => {

        document.getElementById("setPropertyExplicitAsyncOutput").textContent = "Set";
        });

        document.getElementById("setPropertySyncButton").addEventListener("click", () => {

        });

        document.getElementById("getIndexedPropertyAsyncButton").addEventListener("click", async () => {
        const index = parseInt(document.getElementById("getIndexedPropertyAsyncParam").value);
        const resultValue = await chrome.webview.hostObjects.sample.IndexedProperty[index];

AddScriptToExecuteOnDocumentCreated

Add the provided JavaScript to a list of scripts that should be executed after the global object has been created, but before the HTML document has been parsed and before any other script included by the HTML document is executed.

public HRESULT AddScriptToExecuteOnDocumentCreated(LPCWSTR javaScript, ICoreWebView2AddScriptToExecuteOnDocumentCreatedCompletedHandler * handler)

The injected script will apply to all future top level document and child frame navigations until removed with RemoveScriptToExecuteOnDocumentCreated. This is applied asynchronously and you must wait for the completion handler to run before you can be sure that the script is ready to execute on future navigations.

Note that if an HTML document has sandboxing of some kind via sandbox properties or the Content-Security-Policy HTTP header this will affect the script run here. So, for example, if the 'allow-modals' keyword is not set then calls to the alert function will be ignored.

// Prompt the user for some script and register it to execute whenever a new page loads.
void ScriptComponent::AddInitializeScript()

AddWebResourceRequestedFilter

Adds a URI and resource context filter to the WebResourceRequested event.

public HRESULT AddWebResourceRequestedFilter(LPCWSTR const uri, COREWEBVIEW2_WEB_RESOURCE_CONTEXT const resourceContext)

URI parameter can be a wildcard string ('': zero or more, '?': exactly one). nullptr is equivalent to L"". See COREWEBVIEW2_WEB_RESOURCE_CONTEXT enum for description of resource context filters.

CallDevToolsProtocolMethod

Call an asynchronous DevToolsProtocol method.

public HRESULT CallDevToolsProtocolMethod(LPCWSTR methodName, LPCWSTR parametersAsJson, ICoreWebView2CallDevToolsProtocolMethodCompletedHandler * handler)

See the DevTools Protocol Viewer for a list and description of available methods. The methodName parameter is the full name of the method in the format {domain}.{method}. The parametersAsJson parameter is a JSON formatted string containing the parameters for the corresponding method. The handler's Invoke method will be called when the method asynchronously completes. Invoke will be called with the method's return object as a JSON string.

// Prompt the user for the name and parameters of a CDP method, then call it.
void ScriptComponent::CallCdpMethod()
{
    TextInputDialog dialog(
        m_appWindow->GetMainWindow(),

                }).Get());
    }
}

CapturePreview

                })
                .Get()));
    }
}

ExecuteScript

Execute JavaScript code from the javascript parameter in the current top level document rendered in the WebView.

public HRESULT ExecuteScript(LPCWSTR javaScript, ICoreWebView2ExecuteScriptCompletedHandler * handler)

This will execute asynchronously and when complete, if a handler is provided in the ExecuteScriptCompletedHandler parameter, its Invoke method will be called with the result of evaluating the provided JavaScript. The result value is a JSON encoded string. If the result is undefined, contains a reference cycle, or otherwise cannot be encoded into JSON, the JSON null value will be returned as the string 'null'. Note that a function that has no explicit return value returns undefined. If the executed script throws an unhandled exception, then the result is also 'null'. This method is applied asynchronously. If the method is called after NavigationStarting event during a navigation, the script will be executed in the new document when loading it, around the time ContentLoading is fired. ExecuteScript will work even if IsScriptEnabled is set to FALSE.

// Prompt the user for some script and then execute it.
void ScriptComponent::InjectScript()
{
    TextInputDialog dialog(
        m_appWindow->GetMainWindow(),

Opens the DevTools window for the current document in the WebView.

public HRESULT OpenDevToolsWindow()

Does nothing if called when the DevTools window is already open

PostWebMessageAsJson

Post the specified webMessage to the top level document in this WebView.

public HRESULT PostWebMessageAsJson(LPCWSTR webMessageAsJson)

The top level document's window.chrome.webview's message event fires. JavaScript in that document may subscribe and unsubscribe to the event via the following:

window.chrome.webview.addEventListener('message', handler)
window.chrome.webview.removeEventListener('message', handler)

The event args is an instance of MessageEvent. The ICoreWebView2Settings::IsWebMessageEnabled setting must be true or this method will fail with E_INVALIDARG. The event arg's data property is the webMessage string parameter parsed as a JSON string into a JavaScript object. The event arg's source property is a reference to the window.chrome.webview object. See SetWebMessageReceivedEventHandler for information on sending messages from the HTML document in the webview to the host. This message is sent asynchronously. If a navigation occurs before the message is posted to the page, then the message will not be sent.

    // Setup the web message received event handler before navigating to

PostWebMessageAsString

This is a helper for posting a message that is a simple string rather than a JSON string representation of a JavaScript object.

public HRESULT PostWebMessageAsString(LPCWSTR webMessageAsString)

This behaves in exactly the same manner as PostWebMessageAsJson but the window.chrome.webview message event arg's data property will be a string with the same value as webMessageAsString. Use this instead of PostWebMessageAsJson if you want to communicate via simple strings rather than JSON objects.
