For full API compatibility, this Prerelease version of the WebView2 SDK requires the WebView2 Runtime that ships with Microsoft Edge version 123.0.2415.0 or higher.

Breaking changes

  • The behavior of the InitiatingOrigin property of CoreWebView2LaunchingExternalUriSchemeEventArgs has changed. If the InitiatingOrigin is an opaque origin, the InitiatingOrigin that's reported in the event args is its precursor origin. The precursor origin is the origin that created the opaque origin. For example, if a frame that's at example.com opens a subframe that has a different opaque origin, the subframe's precursor origin is example.com.

Old member names:

New member names:

Promotions

The following APIs have been promoted from Experimental to Stable in this Prerelease SDK.
