# Chrome Web Store API Version

The Chrome Web Store REST API have a version string that needs to be sent with each request. For convenience the last known version of the REST API is hardcoded inside the module and set by default.

In case of `400 Bad Request` errors you might have to set the correct REST API version explicitly, using the optional `version` argument.

The correct REST API `version` can be obtained as follows:

- Open an extension page on [chrome.google.com]
- Open `DevTools`, and click on the `Network` tab, then filter by `XHR` requests only
- Reload the page
- Click on one of the requests and take a look at the `Request URL`
- Find the `pv` parameter in the `Request URL`, that's the `version` that you need to set
