## Implemented Interfaces

WebKitGeolocationPermissionRequest implements WebKitPermissionRequest.

## Description

WebKitGeolocationPermissionRequest represents a request for permission to decide whether WebKit should provide the user's location to a website when requested through the Geolocation API.

When a WebKitGeolocationPermissionRequest is not handled by the user, it is denied by default.

When embedding web views in your application, you *must* configure an application identifier to allow web content to use geolocation services. The identifier *must* match the name of the `.desktop` file which describes the application, sans the suffix.

If your application uses GApplication (or any subclass like GtkApplication), WebKit will automatically use the identifier returned by `g_application_get_application_id()`. This is the recommended approach for enabling geolocation in applications.

If an identifier cannot be obtained through GApplication, the value returned by `g_get_prgname()` will be used instead as a fallback. For programs which cannot use GApplication, calling `g_set_prgname()` early during initialization is needed when the name of the executable on disk does not match the name of a valid `.desktop` file.
