Storage Checker: Assess storage health from a usage probe, reporting headroom classification and warnings.
When to use Storage
Use this check to inspect a browser, device, network, permission, media, or input capability directly in the current runtime before relying on it in another workflow.
- Storage probe
- Storage probe supplied by the surface.
How Storage works
Assess storage health from a usage probe, reporting headroom classification and warnings. The tool evaluates the supplied inputs together and returns the named outputs below; it does not infer omitted operating conditions or change the units shown.1
- Used (%)
- Share of quota currently used.
- Free space (B)
- Quota bytes not yet used.
- Headroom
- Remaining-space classification.
- Persisted
- Whether persistent storage has been granted.
- Issues
- Stable machine-facing degradation codes.
Limitations and assumptions
- Results describe the current browser session and can change with permissions, privacy controls, hardware, drivers, network path, power state, or browser updates. Unsupported or withheld information is not proof that the underlying capability is absent.
- Use finite inputs in the displayed units and preserve more precision than the final presentation requires. Independently verify safety-critical, financial, compliance, or production decisions.
Alternative or Complementary approaches
Repeat the check in the browser and device that will actually be used, then confirm important behavior with the relevant operating-system or network diagnostics. Avoid granting permissions that are unnecessary for the test.
