ShadowRoot: serializable property
Baseline
2024
Newly available
Since September 2024, this feature works across the latest devices and browser versions. This feature might not work in older devices or browsers.
The serializable read-only property of the ShadowRoot interface returns true if the shadow root is serializable.
If set, the shadow root may be serialized by calling the Element.getHTML() or ShadowRoot.getHTML() methods with the options.serializableShadowRoots parameter set true.
The serializable property of a shadow root is specified when the shadow root is created, either declaratively by adding the shadowrootserializable attribute on a <template> element (along with an allowed shadowrootmode value), or by setting the options.serializable parameter to true when using Element.attachShadow().
Value
true if the shadow root is serializable; false otherwise.
Examples
const customElem = document.querySelector("my-shadow-dom-element");
const shadow = customElem.shadowRoot;
// …
// Is it serializable?
const hostElem = shadow.serializable;
