bookmarks.BookmarkTreeNode
An object of type bookmarks.BookmarkTreeNode
represents a node in the bookmark tree, where each node is a bookmark, a bookmark folder, or a separator. Child nodes are ordered by an index
within their respective parent folders.
Type
An object
with the following properties:
children
Optional-
An
array
ofbookmarks.BookmarkTreeNode
objects which represent the node's children. The list is ordered in the list in which the children appear in the user interface. This field is omitted if the node isn't a folder. dateAdded
Optional-
A number representing the creation date of the node in milliseconds since the epoch.
dateGroupModified
Optional-
A number representing the date and time the contents of this folder last changed, in milliseconds since the epoch.
id
-
A
string
which uniquely identifies the node. Each ID is unique within the user's profile and remains unchanged across browser restarts. index
Optional-
A number which represents the zero-based position of this node within its parent folder, where zero represents the first entry.
Note: If you create or move multiple bookmarks, because the
bookmarks.create()
andbookmarks.move()
methods are asynchronous, the requests may get processed in any order. Consequently, the value of each bookmark's index may change or be unknown until all the requests are completed. If the index associated with a bookmark matters to your extension, then – when creating or moving multiple bookmarks – the extension should wait for eachbookmarks.create
orbookmarks.move
call to complete before creating or moving the next bookmark. Waiting ensures that the index associated with each bookmark is not affected by a create or move call executing concurrently while the original call is in progress. parentId
Optional-
A
string
which specifies the ID of the parent folder. This property is not present in the root node. title
-
A
string
which contains the text displayed for the node in menus and lists of bookmarks. type

A
bookmarks.BookmarkTreeNodeType
object indicating whether this is a bookmark, a folder, or a separator. Defaults to"bookmark"

string
as described by the typebookmarks.BookmarkTreeNodeUnmodifiable
. Represents the reason that the node can't be changed. If the node can be changed, this is omitted. url
