A justification for remote code use is required. But Remote code is used, it's a v3 manifest

I'm trying to submit an extension to the store.
However I get this message back.
When I'm in the privacy tab there is no remove code section, so I'm unable to specify anything.

the manifest requires the following permissions;
   "permissions": [ "storage", "declarativeNetRequest"],

How can I resolve this?
  • A justification for remote code use is required. This can be entered on the privacy practices tab.
OK

I made a typo, remote code is NOT used.

It means that the store thinks there is remote code in your package. If you think this is incorrect, or want more information on how to proceed, then I would recommend opening a ticket via One Stop Support (https://support.google.com/chrome_webstore/contact/one_stop_support

Hi Sander,

I just wanted to follow-up and say that we had an issue here which I believe we've now resolved.

If you go to the "Privacy" tab on your item in the developer dashboard, you should see an "Are you using remote code?" question. Answering no should remove the need to provide a justification. This was previously missing - apologies for that.

Let us know if that helps!
