permissions.remove()
Ask to give up the permissions listed in the given permissions.Permissions object.
The Permissions argument may contain either an origins property, which is an array of host permissions, or a permissions property, which is an array of API permissions, or both. Permissions must come from the set of permissions defined in the optional_permissions manifest.json key.
This is an asynchronous function that returns a Promise.
Syntax
js
let removing = browser.permissions.remove(
permissions // Permissions object
)
Parameters
permissions-
A
permissions.Permissionsobject.
Return value
A Promise that is fulfilled with true if the permissions listed in the permissions argument are now not granted to the extension, or false otherwise.
Examples

const permissionToRemove = {
permissions: ["history"],
};
async function remove() {
console.log("removing");
const removed = await browser.permissions.remove(permissionToRemove);
console.log(removed);
}
document.querySelector("#remove").addEventListener("click", remove);
