Summary

Add this extension to view locally published prototypes (HTML files) created from Axure RP in Google Chrome.

This extension requires a high access level to allow the viewing of the file:// protocol. This extension only requires these permissions to allow viewing of prototypes in Chrome - Axure does not track or access any of your information.

IMPORTANT: After installing the extension you must check the setting "Allow access to file URLs". You can access this by going to: Tools > Extensions > Axure RP Extension for Chrome from the Chrome > Preferences menu.

This extension allows you to view Axure RP prototypes in Google Chrome. It is not used to open Axure RP project files (.rp, .rpteam) for editing in Google Chrome.

You do not have to install this extension if you want to view prototypes hosted on the web. For example, you don't need this to view prototypes from Axure Cloud (app.axure.cloud) or Axure Cloud for Business (axure.com/enterprise).

Safety

Risk impact

Axure RP Extension for Chrome requires a number of risky permissions that can potentially harm your browser and steal your data. Exercise caution when installing this extension. Review carefully before installing. We recommend that you only install Axure RP Extension for Chrome if you trust the publisher.

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypass your security settings, and access your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Risk likelihood

Axure RP Extension for Chrome has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Chrome extension, especially ones with higher risk impact and/or higher risk likelihood.
