chrome.tabs.create in incognito window opens a tab in normal window

This bug has been reported here too(closed as obsolete):

I want to create a new tab in current incognito window . The call to chrome.tabs.create will be made in background page. How can I achieve this? Is there any workaround?

Solution

  • Well guys I made it work after adding permission "incognito":"split" in manifest.json

    It is explained in the docs :
