Chrome extension id - how to find it

Question

How can I find out what the chrome extension id is for an extension

User · Answer

As Alex Gray points out in a comment above, "all of the corresponding IDs are actually on the extensions page within the browser".

However, you must click the Developer Mode checkbox at top of Extensions page to see them.

You get an extension ID when you upload your extension to Google Web Store  Ie  Adblock has URL https   chrome google com webstore detail cfhdojbkjhnklbpkdaibdccddilifddb and the last part of this URL is its extension ID cfhdojbkjhnklbpkdaibdccddilifddb     If you wish to read installed extension IDs from your extension  check out the managment module  chrome management getAll allows to fetch information about all installed extensions

If you just need to do it one-off  navigate to chrome   extensions   Enable Developer Mode at upper right  The ID will be shown in the box for each extension   Or  if you re working on developing a userscript or extension  purposefully throw an error   Look in the javascript console  and the ID will be there  on the right side of the console  in the line describing the error   Lastly  you can look in your chrome extensions directory  it stores extensions in directories named by the ID   This is the worst choice  as you d have extension IDs  and have to read each manifest json to figure out which ID was the right one   But if you just installed something  you can also just sort by creation date  and the newest extension directory will be the ID you want
