Value

An integer. If the device has no vendor ID, or the vendor ID cannot be accessed this will return 0.

Examples

The following example retrieves devices with HID.getDevices() and logs the value of vendorId to the console.

js
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", async () => {
  let devices = await navigator.hid.getDevices();
  devices.forEach((device) => {
    console.log(`HID: ${device.vendorId}`);
  });
});
