+<div>Enables extensions to request extra permissions at runtime, after they have been installed.</div>
+
+<div></div>
+
+<p>Extensions need permissions to access more powerful WebExtension APIs. They can ask for permissions at install time, by including the permissions they need in the <code><a href="/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/manifest.json/permissions">permissions</a></code> manifest.json key. The main advantages of asking for permissions at install time are:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>The user is only asked once, so it's less disruptive for them, and a simpler decision.</li>
+ <li>The extension can rely on the access to the APIs it needs, because if already running, the permissions have been granted.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>There is not yet a simple GUI, for users to view permissions of their installed WebExtension Add-ons.  Users must use about:debugging, go to the Add-ons section, then use the "Manifest Url" link for this Add-on. This shows raw json, which includes a "permissions" block, showing the permissions used by this addon.</p>
+
+<p>With the permissions API, an extension can ask for additional permissions at runtime. These permissions need to be listed in the <code><a href="/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/manifest.json/optional_permissions">optional_permissions</a></code> manifest.json key. Note that some permissions are not allowed in <code>optional_permissions</code>. The main advantages of this are:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>The extension can run with a smaller set of permissions, except when it actually needs them.</li>
+ <li>The extension can handle permission denial in a graceful manner, instead of presenting the user with a global "all or nothing" choice at install time. You can still get a lot out of that map extension, without giving it access to your location, for example.</li>
+ <li>
+ <p>The extension may need <a href="/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/manifest.json/permissions#Host_permissions">host permissions</a>, but not know at install time which host permissions it needs. For example, the list of hosts may be a user setting. In this scenario, asking for a more specific range of hosts at runtime, can be an alternative to asking for "&lt;all_urls&gt;" at install time.</p>
+ </li>
+</ul>
+
+<div>To use the permissions API, decide which permissions your extension can request at runtime, and list them in <code><a href="/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/manifest.json/optional_permissions">optional_permissions</a></code>. After this, you can request any permissions that were included in <code>optional_permissions</code>. Requests may only be made in the handler for a user action (for example, a click handler).</div>
