Permissions explanation.
Extension doesn't access you data in any way, unless you open devtools and click on the tab with Storage Explorer.
Extension doesn't store or transmit any data to other sites.
Detailed permissions explanation.
-copy/paste is required in order to enable import/export directly to clipboard
-all data on your sites - this devtools extension, and therefore when you open devtools, only those pages are accessible
-tabs and browsing history- extension requires tabs permission, but it is only used when devtools are actually opened (permission is needed in order to work with local/session html storage)

RIP my old friend. You served your purpose very well. 🪦🪦
Please update it to Manifest V3.
Good ext but keep freezing.
If you're trying to view a extension inspect your extensions mainfest.json like this too see your extensions local storage chrome-extension://<your_extension_id>/manifest.json
Outdated. Does not work for service workers nor for extensions that only store and read chrome extension data through content scripts. In fact, doesn't even seem to work on its own background page.
Useful for extension developers, thank you. Easy to manage storage
not enough good to edit value。 I have better choice swoosh very friendly
So far do good
Fantastic, works exactly as advertised and came through in a pinch. For anyone who missed it, make sure you inspect the page in order to find the Storage Area Explorer tab.
Great job, very useful, works perfectly!
Doesn't work for background service workers.
Please add support for MV3 service worker. I am able to check the storage data by opening extension manifest file in a separate tab and check the dev console in that tab. But this workaround is a bit annoying. Also chrome storage api has a new 'Session' type storage. Would be helpful if we can view that as well.

Love this extension, it helps me monitor what was going on with my extension, huge time saver, and well done, I also love that you can edit the storage directly from the tab, 11/10 <3

Super útil. Justo lo que estaba buscando. Muy importante teniendo en cuenta la relevancia del storage en las web extension. Acelera todo el desarrollo, ya que te evita tener que estar constantemente metiendo comandos en consola para verificar el estado del storage. Debería de haberla instalado mucho antes, me hubiera ahorrado mucho tiempo.
Works great! If you don't see chrome.storage tabs you have to open URL starting with chrome-extension://ID/somethinghere and then it'll appear

Doesn't seem to do anything. No additional tabs appear in the dev console. No errors in the logs. Just does nothing as far as I can see

This was a great find when developing my first extension. I was having a lot of trouble inspecting this data, but this extension made it super easy

Very nice. It would be nice if it also worked for extensions that are purely service workers too- at the moment your extension thinks it isn't on an extension page when you go to their inspect view, so it doesn't show the storage, even though the APIs are the same (so I assume it is just a problem in the way you check to see if it is an extension view or not).

Top-notch helper. Thanks developer

Amazing and super helpful extension, just one question, are there any reasons you're not showing chrome.storage.session? Is it sort of 'inaccessible' to your extension?

It was great but it has stopped working. Clicking the extension icon doesn't do anything.

Muy útil y, por ahora, la única con esta función.
Can't even get it to work. I click and nothing happens (basically inactive). no options. Something is amiss... It looks awesome at the start, but just can't make it work.

Great, all i needed was to view and maybe edit the storage
Awesome! perfect way * to backup and restore extension settings * debloat and manipulate extensions with increasingly large datasets such as OneTab * keep setting-profiles betwin sessions * accessing some data extensions don't let you export or download to easy
