docs(backend): correct the Electron allowedOrigins example by manovotny · Pull Request #9784 · clerk/javascript

manovotny · 2026-09-16T09:48:35Z

Description

The Electron docs reference allowedOrigins, and its JSDoc still described an outdated "default origin is http://localhost:3000" example. @clerk/electron apps use a custom renderer scheme (registered via createClerkBridge()), not localhost, so this replaces the sentence with an accurate description.

Changeset:

---
'@clerk/backend': patch
---

Update the `allowedOrigins` JSDoc for Electron apps to describe the custom renderer scheme used by `@clerk/electron`.

Checklist

pnpm test runs as expected.
pnpm build runs as expected.
(If applicable) JSDoc comments have been added or updated for any package exports

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change updates allowedOrigins documentation in two backend API locations. Electron integrations now use the custom renderer scheme registered through createClerkBridge() instead of http://localhost:3000. The endpoint documentation includes an example. Browser extension and Capacitor guidance remains documented. A patch changeset records the documentation update.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes

Suggested reviewers: alexisintech

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 6f04f

Electron users may still see the obsolete origin in published API documentation until the downstream generated-docs update lands. This is a bounded documentation issue with no runtime impact.
