What are the mandatory data types for Asynchronous Clipboard API?

Open EdgarChen opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

There is a sub-session of Mandatory data types under Clipboard Event API session. But spec doesn't mention that for Asynchronous Clipboard API specifically. Do we expect the mandatory data types for Clipboard Event API also be applied to Asynchronous Clipboard API?

At least from discussion the intent is that the two APIs operate on the same underlying model, so yes. That should probably be more clearly stated in the specification.

See https://github.com/w3c/editing/issues/305. Also, agreed that the spec should be more explicit about the API that these formats are applicable to.
