PaymentManager: enableDelegations() method

The enableDelegations() method of the PaymentManager interface delegates responsibility for providing various parts of the required payment information to the payment app rather than collecting it from the browser (for example, via autofill).

For example, if the requestShipping option is set to true in the options object when invoking the PaymentRequest() constructor, a shipping address will be returned.

• If enableDelegations() was used to delegate shippingAddress, that address will come from the payment app.
• If not, it will come from the browser autofill.

Syntax

enableDelegations(delegations)

Parameters

delegations Optional

payerName

The payment app will provide the payer's name whenever it is needed.

payerPhone

The payment app will provide the payer's phone number whenever it is needed.

shippingAddress

The payment app will provide the shipping address whenever it is needed.

Return value

A Promise that resolves with a value of undefined.

Examples

navigator.serviceWorker.register("serviceworker.js").then((registration) => {
  registration.paymentManager.userHint = "Card number should be 16 digits";

  registration.paymentManager
    .enableDelegations(["shippingAddress", "payerName"])
    .then(() => {
      // …

});
