Note: This feature is available in Web Workers.
The referrer
read-only property of the Request
interface is set by the user agent to be the referrer of the Request. (e.g., client
, no-referrer
, or a URL.)
Note: If referrer
's value is no-referrer
, it returns an empty string.
A string representing the request's referrer.
ExamplesIn the following snippet, we create a new request using the Request()
constructor (for an image file in the same directory as the script), then save the request referrer in a variable:
const myRequest = new Request("flowers.jpg");
const myReferrer = myRequest.referrer; // returns "about:client" by default
