Limited availability

The HTTP Permissions-Policy header serial directive controls whether the current document is allowed to use the Web Serial API to communicate with serial devices, either directly connected via a serial port, or via USB or Bluetooth devices emulating a serial port.

Specifically, where a defined policy blocks use of this feature, requestPort() and getPorts() calls will return a Promise that rejects with a DOMException of type SecurityError.
