I am using the official Web Vitals Chrome Extension. And I'm tracking the INP metrics for my web page. And saw this:
What does this mean? Is there any place to view the whole documents about the console output?
The navigation type is determined by the Navigation Timing API.
MDN also has a good explanation of the values:
"reload"
Navigation is through the browser's reload operation,
location.reload()
or a Refresh pragma directive like<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="300">
.
The Web Vitals extension is based on the web-vitals.js library, whose README documents the entire object you see in the console.
