Limited availabilitySecure contextAvailable in workers
The backgroundfetchclick event of the ServiceWorkerGlobalScope interface is fired when the user clicks on the UI that the browser provides to show the user the progress of the background fetch operation.

addEventListener("backgroundfetchclick", (event) => { })
onbackgroundfetchclick = (event) => { }
Event type
Description
When a background fetch operation starts, the browser shows a UI element to the user to indicate the progress of the operation. If the user clicks this element, the browser starts the service worker, if necessary, and fires the backgroundfetchclick event in the service worker’s global scope.
A common task for the handler in this situation is to open a window giving the user more details about the fetch operation.
Examples
Opening a window with more details
This event handler uses the global clients property to open a window giving the user more details about the fetch. It opens a different window depending on whether the fetch has completed or not.
addEventListener("backgroundfetchclick", (event) => {
const registration = event.registration;
if (registration.result === "success") {
clients.openWindow("/play-movie");
} else {
clients.openWindow("/movie-download-progress");
}
});
