# Download crx of your WebExtension from Chrome Web Store

This action is experimental and uses undocumented Chrome Web Store endpoint.

Based on [typed-chrome-webstore-api](https://www.npmjs.com/package/typed-chrome-webstore-api) package.

It downloads crx of already published extension. To publish an extension in a workflow look at 

[upload](https://github.com/cardinalby/webext-buildtools-chrome-webstore-upload-action) and

[publish](https://github.com/cardinalby/webext-buildtools-chrome-webstore-publish-action) actions.

Your extension id in Chrome Web Store

    

* `crxFilePath`**Required**


Specify a relative file path to save crx file

* `prodVersion` Default: `83.0.4103.116`

Target version of Chrome, which must be 31.0.1609.0 at the very least

* `acceptFormat` Default: `crx2|crx3`

Accept crx file formats delimited by | sign. Allowed formats: `crx2`, `crx3`

* **Optionally** you can specify the following 3 inputs to point to exact platform 

you want to download crx for:

    * `downloadCrxPlatformOs` (`mac`, `win`, `android`, `cros`, `openbsd`, `Linux`)

    * `downloadCrxPlatformArch` (`arm`, `x86-64`, `x86-32`)

    * `downloadCrxPlatformNaclArch` (`arm`, `x86-64`, `x86-32`)
