Caniuse: Asynchronous Clipboard API (replaces document.execCommand)

Created on 27 Jan 2018 · 6Comments · Source: Fyrd/caniuse

Currently it's not supported as it's experimental, but it's intended to replace the document.execCommand method to manage the clipboard. The return value is a Promise.
Here is the draft from W3C
Here is the docs from the MDN

I think OP is referring to the "Asynchronous Clipboard API" (https://w3c.github.io/clipboard-apis/#async-clipboard-api), which does not seem to be covered in https://caniuse.com/#feat=clipboard .

I've made a PR for this at #4302, feedback on it is welcome there, particularly around splitting the feature support in two, one for legacy sync, and one for the new async.
