The store()
method of the CredentialsContainer
stores a set of credentials for the user inside a Credential
instance, returning this in a Promise
.
Note: This method is restricted to top-level contexts. Calls to it within an <iframe>
element will resolve without effect.
A Promise
that resolves to undefined
.
This code would be executed after a user signs up or logs in and the server confirms the credential is correct.
if ("PasswordCredential" in window) {
let credential = new PasswordCredential({
id: "example-username",
name: "Carina Anand",
password: "correct horse battery staple",
});
navigator.credentials.store(credential).then(
() => {
console.info("Credential stored in the user agent's credential manager.");
},
(err) => {
console.error("Error while storing the credential: ", err);
},
);
}
