The message read-only property of the DeprecationReportBody interface returns a human-readable description of the deprecation. This typically matches the message a browser will display in its DevTools console regarding a deprecated feature.
A string.
In this example we create a new ReportingObserver to observe deprecation reports, then print the value of message to the console.
let options = {
types: ["deprecation"],
buffered: true,
};
let observer = new ReportingObserver((reports, observer) => {
let firstReport = reports[0];
console.log(firstReport.type); // deprecation
console.log(firstReport.body.message);
}, options);
