WorkletSharedStorage

Experimental: This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.

The WorkletSharedStorage interface of the Shared Storage API represents the shared storage for a particular origin within a worklet context.

WorkletSharedStorage is accessed via SharedStorageWorkletGlobalScope.sharedStorage.

SharedStorage WorkletSharedStorage

Instance properties

context Experimental Non-standard

Contains contextual data passed into the shared storage worklet from the associated browsing context via the FencedFrameConfig.setSharedStorageContext() method.

Instance methods

WorkletSharedStorage inherits properties from its parent interface, SharedStorage.

get() Experimental

Retrieves a value from the shared storage.

length() Experimental

Returns the number of entries currently stored in the shared storage for the current origin.

remainingBudget() Experimental

Returns the remaining navigation budget for the current origin.

WorkletSharedStorage also includes the following methods because it has an async iterator defined on it:

entries() Experimental

Returns a new async iterator for the key-value pairs of a WorkletSharedStorage object instance's enumerable properties.

keys() Experimental

Returns a new async iterator containing the keys for each item in a WorkletSharedStorage object instance.

WorkletSharedStorage[@@asyncIterator]() Experimental

Returns the entries() function by default.

Examples

Passing contextual data via setSharedStorageContext()

You can use the Private Aggregation API to create reports that combine event-level data inside fenced frames with contextual data from the embedding document. setSharedStorageContext() can be used to pass contextual data from the embedder to shared storage worklets initiated by the Protected Audience API.

In this example, we store data from both the embedding page and the fenced frame using shared storage.

On the embedding page, we set a mock event ID as the shared storage context using setSharedStorageContext():

js
const frameConfig = await navigator.runAdAuction({ resolveToConfig: true });

// Data from the embedder that you want to pass to the shared storage worklet
frameConfig.setSharedStorageContext("some-event-id");

const frame = document.createElement("fencedframe");
frame.config = frameConfig;

Within the fenced frame, after adding the worklet module with window.sharedStorage.worklet.addModule(), we send the event-level data into the shared storage worklet module using window.sharedStorage.run() (this is unrelated to the contextual data from the embedding document):

js
const frameData = {
  // Data available only inside the fenced frame
};

await window.sharedStorage.worklet.addModule("reporting-worklet.js");

await window.sharedStorage.run("send-report", {
  data: {
    frameData,
  },
});

In the reporting-worklet.js worklet, we read the embedding document's event ID from sharedStorage.context and the frame's event-level data from the data object. We then report them through Private Aggregation:

js
class ReportingOperation {
  convertEventIdToBucket(eventId) { ... }
  convertEventPayloadToValue(info) { ... }

  async run(data) {
    // Data from the embedder
    const eventId = sharedStorage.context;

    // Data from the fenced frame
    const eventPayload = data.frameData;

    privateAggregation.sendHistogramReport({
      bucket: convertEventIdToBucket(eventId),
      value: convertEventPayloadToValue(eventPayload)
    });
  }
}

register('send-report', ReportingOperation);
