ReportingObserver.disconnect()

This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.

The disconnect() method of the ReportingObserver interface stops a reporting observer that had previously started observing from collecting reports.

After calling disconnect(), neither ReportingObserver.takeRecords() nor the records parameter of the ReportingObserver() callback will return any reports. The associated observer will no longer be active.

Syntax

reportingObserverInstance.disconnect()

Examples

let options = {
  types: ['deprecation'],
  buffered: true
}

let observer = new ReportingObserver(function(reports, observer) {
  reportBtn.onclick = () => displayReports(reports);
}, options);

observer.observe()

...

observer.disconnect()
