Viewschrome extension: Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'onClicked')
I have been creating a chrome extension that should run a certain script(index.js) on a particular tab on extension click.
service_worker.js
// action on extension click
chrome.browserAction.onClicked.addListener(function (tab) {
chrome.tabs.executeScript({
tabId: tab.id,
}, { file: "index.js" });
});
I have also tried
chrome.action......
and
browser....
But nothing works, I am using manifest v3.
manifest.json
{
"name": "Meet scraper",
"version": "0.1",
"author": "Naveenkumar M",
"description": "Scrapes meet data from meetup.com",
"manifest_version": 3,
"permissions": [
"activeTab",
"tabs"
],
"background": {
"service_worker": "service_worker.js"
}
}
And my index.js file is
console.log("Hello world")
I got the error
correct me if I am wrong

Manifest v2
The following keys must be declared in the manifest to use this API.
browser_action
check this link for more details

Update 1 :
Manifest v3
you need to add actions inside your manifest file
{
"action": { … }
}
and then you can call it like this
chrome.action.onClicked.addListener(tab => { … });
