# permissionStatus(for:)

Checks the specified URL against the currently denied, granted, and requested permission match patterns.

```
func permissionStatus(for url: URL) -> WKWebExtensionContext.PermissionStatus
```

## Parameters

`url`

The URL for which to return the status.

## Discussion

URLs and match patterns can be granted on a per-tab basis. When the tab is known, access checks should always use the method that checks in a tab.
