contextualIdentities.get()

.
Syntax
js
let getContext = browser.contextualIdentities.get(
cookieStoreId // string
)
Parameters
-
string
. The ID of this contextual identity's cookie store. Because contextual identities each have their own cookie store, this serves as an identifier for the contextual identity itself.

that will be fulfilled with a ContextualIdentity
that describes the identity. If the identity could not be found or the contextual identities feature is not enabled, the promise is rejected.

}
}
