Dear Chromium extension developers,
We are planning to make the chrome.webAuthenticationProxy extension API available to third-party extensions with the release of Chrome 115.
The chrome.webAuthenticationProxy API enables Chrome extensions to handle regular Web Authentication API requests from the browser. It is designed for remote desktop host software to forward WebAuthn requests from a remote computer to a local client and process them there. This can be useful, for example, when using security keys within a remote desktop session.
You can find more information about the chrome.webAuthenticationProxy API in the documentation.
Cheers,
Martin Kreichgauer for the Chrome WebAuthn team
