The API is currently available in Chrome based browsers (Android, Chrome OS, Linux, macOS and Windows) and is supported in the MakeCode Editor and the Python Editor.

This enables you to flash your micro:bit straight from the browser without the need to save the.hex file first, and use serial communication between the micro:bit and the editor.

WebUSB is still being developed and as such you may experience issues in using it.

Here is some troubleshooting advice for using WebUSB with the micro:bit and the editors.

Power Rules Manager Serial Mac Or Linux

General To use WebUSB, youll need to have Windows 8, Mac or Linux as your operating system.

A Chrome based browser like Google Chrome at version 65 or above and micro:bit firmware at version 0249 or above If you see the message no compatible devices found when you try to connect, you may need to update the micro:bit firmware.

The micro:bit should show up in the browser as BBC micro:bit CMSIS-DAP.

The first time you pair the micro:bit using webUSB it may show up as LPC1768 and thereafter as BBC micro:bit CMSIS-DAP.

If you are moving between editors eg Python MakeCode, you may find that flashing via webUSB takes longer if the micro:bit already contains a program created in the previous editor.

MakeCode For further information regarding bugs and features in the MakeCode editor see issues tagged with webusb on Github.

Python Editor You will see an error if you try and use webUSB functions in an incompatible browser.

As WebUSB is only available in Chrome based browsers, including the latest Edge beta, you will not be able to use the connect, flash and serial features in other browsers that do not support them.

Due to a technical limitation in the software you may experience data loss if you are sending data over serial at a high rate.

To use the serial console, you will need to have flashed the micro:bit from the Python editor, so that it contains valid MicroPython.

For further information regarding bugs and features in the Python editor see issues tagged with webUSB on Github.

Linux If Chromium has been installed from the snap store (the default in the Ubuntu Software Store) it will not be able to access WebUSB devices.

If you have upgraded from a previous version eg Windows 7 Windows 10 you may experience a confict with an old driver.

If the Mbed Serial driver has been manually installed (by downloading and executing the.exe) it might interfere with the Windows 810 automatic installation of the WebUSB driver.

To check if you have this driver already: Open Windows Device Manager and see if the micro:bit USB device is shown.

If it is. find the mbed Composite Device entry, right click on it and select Uninstall device.

A new window will open, mark the Delete the driver software for this device box and click Uninstall.

Unplug and replug your micro:bit and it should appear under USB devices.

If you hate cookies, or are just on a diet, you can disable them altogether too.

Just note that the Freshdesk service is pretty big on some cookies (we love the choco-chip ones), and some portions of Freshdesk may not work properly if you disable cookies.
