how to match both https and http in matches (manifest.json)

Question

At the moment I've got it like this:

"matches": ['https://google.com/*', 'http://google.com/*']

Is there any way to combine these 2 URLs into one allowing both https and http?

(Manifest V3)

Answer 1

1. * is for both http and https.

2. The real address of google.com is www.google.com (Chrome hides the www part by default)

3. Use double quotes.

"matches": ["*://www.google.com/*"]

Answer 2

According to https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/mv2/match_patterns/ you could do:

"matches": ["*://google.com/*"]
